Use waste yarn to mark the position where each fringe group should be attached to the scarf, spacing the fringe groups evenly along the short ends of the scarf.
To attach the fringe at each marked position, fold a fringe group in half to form a loop. Draw the center of a fringe group through the end of the scarf, using the crochet hook if desired. Thread fringe tails through the loop and tighten to secure. Repeat for each group of fringe.
Trim fringe ends evenly.
