Pinks, purples and oranges are really big with the 3 to 6 year old crowd in my family. This scarf I made with Allie (age almost 4) in mind. Thus...
The color of the yarn is called "Peachy." I got it at JoAnn Fabrics today. It was on sale for $7.49 per huge 258 yard skein (normal price $9.99):

It is a super bulky yarn, chenille like, with absolutely no fuzz. I used the entire skein (including making the pom-poms) and it took me an hour to crochet.
Here it is modeled by one of my old dolls:

The scarf measures 5 1/2 X 52 inches (plus pom poms). It is done in a series of double and single crochets (to keep it rather tight, so it won't snag on things as easily as it would if it had a more open weave).

February 9, 2015 Note: I decided this scarf is going to go in the Good-Will box. The only part of it I really like is the huge pom-poms!
I'm betting she will! Very girly and nicely done.
