This soft and cosy child’s scarf is the perfect way to add a touch of fun to any kid’s winter wardrobe.

Inspired by the traditional reds and whites of the holiday season (Santa vibes) and colourful cacti, the tassels create a fun, spiky but soft contrast with the squishiness of the scarf.

Ideal for beginners, it’s worked flat in garter stitch and jazzed up by sewing on some adorable tassels to give aN unusual look.

It’s modern, festive, cheerful and super snuggly!
