Flora scrunchie is the perfect stash buster or last-minute gift. The feminine lace pattern is knit after a chart and is easily memorized. With a gauge of 24 sts on 10 cm it is a quick knit between bigger projects, or when you just want to cast on something new. Use any yarn from your stash regardless of gauge, but keep in mind that it might affect the yardage and size. The pictured scrunchie is knit using Knitting for Olive Merino colorway Dusty Dove Blue.
