Spring Charity Knit Scarves during Isolation

I am stash busting during our isolation, in the hopes of getting rid of the old to buy NEW yarn when we can safely shop again!

METHOD:
Done in whatever suits my fancy. 

The pink fringed one is leftover Lionbrand Homespun from Jen's Poncho, done in a repeat called "Purse Stitch" which gave it a neat lace look. 

The blue chenille is a skein of Lionbrand Chenille Thick and Quick in garter stitch. I started to crochet a scarf in this, but it's a nightmare no matter how you try to work with it.

The taupe is a basketweave stitch alternating garter and stockinette, extra wide but short enough to tie around your neck, probably wide enough for a man.

The unicorn puke color is a child's scarf done in Bernat boa. 
(I actually intended to make three of these, but Little Bear said he loved the color and the feel and wanted an extra long one for himself. I think I am raising a fabric-oholic.)


AND WHAT DID WE LEARN?
Marie Kondo all your yarn. Seriously. It sparks joy, getting rid of it.
