1. Hold the yarn in your dominant hand.
2. Hold up your other hand, palm facing you, with your fingers spread.
3. Leaving a 6 inch tail and keeping the yarn loose, put the yarn in front of your index finger, behind your middle finger, in front of your ring finger, and behind your pinky. Use your thumb to hold the 6 inch yarn tail in place.
*Note: The 'front' of your finger is the side facing you. The 'back' is the other side of your finger*
4. Wind the yarn back through your fingers, wrapping it in front of your pinky, behind your ring finger, in front of your middle finger, and behind your index finger.
5. Pull the yarn across the front of your fingers, from your index finger to your pinky, making sure to keep it straight and on top of the yarn woven through your fingers.
6. Pick up the bottom loop of yarn on your index finger.
7. Pull the loop of yarn over the top line of yarn and over the top of your finger.
*Note: This is why it's important to keep the yarn loose as you wind it around your fingers. You need to be able to pull it over your finger.*
8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 for your index finger, middle finger, and pinky.
9. Pull the yarn across your hand from your pinky to index fingers.
10. Repeat steps 6 and 7 for each finger again.
11. Keep going in this fashion until the scarf is the length you like, being certain to lightly pull the stitches forming at the back of your hand from time to time.

To Finish
1. Pick up the loop from your index finger and place it on top of the loop from your middle finger.
2. Pick up the bottom loop on your middle finger.
3. Pull it over the top loop on your middle finger and over the top of your finger.
4. Pick up the remaining loop on your middle finger and place it on top of the loop on your ring finger.
5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for you ring finger and pinky until you only have one loop remaining on your pinky.
6. Cut the yarn, being certain to leave a 6 inch tail.
7. Pull the yarn through loop on your ring finger to secure it.
