100g of yarn may not be enough for a full-sized scarf. The amount needed depends on the yarn's thickness, the scarf's dimensions, and the knitting or crochet pattern. Generally, adult scarves require about 300 to 400g of medium-weight yarn. For a small or thin scarf, or a child's size, 100g could suffice. Consider the pattern and intended size before starting your project.
