Folk Art Scarf
The simplest color work, a ‘wrong side’ that is completely different yet as nice as its reverse and a clever little trick with a crochet hook for the finishing yield whole that is greater then the sum: A light and gauzy scarf knit in a deliciously soft yarn with brilliant retro colors.
