Yes more ruffles! This is actually a knitted flounce. You may remember that I made some of these last year. Like those, this one is also a gift.
The yarns are both very soft -- the main yarn is 70% soft acrylic/30% cotton (Bernat denimstyle; color 03117) and the trim "eyelash" type yarn is 100% polyester (Yarn Bee- Frosting; color is Polar Icing). The combination made for a very soft boa. I went looking for anything "blue" that I had in my yarn stash and these were the winning candidates:
The pattern was a little lacier than the one I used last year. It starts off with 110 stitches and after 11 rows there are almost 900 stitches on the needle before binding off. I think I like this one better. If you want to make one, the pattern is from Lion Brand Yarn -- just search on "potato chip scarf."
When worn, it curls up into itself, but here is a close up to show some of the detail:
