Doodad Scarf
What if you strung a whole lot of little beads, charms and doodads onto your ball of yarn and then started knitting, every once in a while incorporating one of the doodads into the work?
Note the importance of stringing on all of the doodads before you start knitting—no way to add them later!
Actually there is a way to add beads randomly when knitting without stringing them beforehand. http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEspring06/FEATseducedbybeads.html and read the 'hooking beads as you go' bit. I prefer it because I can't be fagged prethreading beads! Pretty scarf :)
