I always fall in love with these great multi colored skeins, but then never really know what to knit with them, because usually the just pool up in funny blobs of color when knit up. Then one day when I was looking at a group of crochet projects it struck me just how perfect a medium crochet is for these skeins. I love the texture and flow that appears from these yarns in crochet. I wanted to design a pattern that would work with these yarns and this shawl/scarf is what came about after contemplation.
