If you saw my post from last month you would have read that I was looking for a project that was light and easy to carry. I wanted something to make while I was away on a winter holiday and this pattern really fit the bill. It fitted easily into a small bag to carry around with me and crochet when the fancy took me.
It took 2 weeks to complete and the pattern is easy to follow with drawn diagrams too to help describe the stitches and where they go on the pattern.
It is a free pattern by Esther at Make My Day Creative and it certainly did make my day and the finished scarf is beautiful and it cost me just £3.20 (Nov 2015) using 100% mercerised crochet cotton from 'Boyes' the high street store. http://tiny.cc/a5t96x
I used a 2.00 mm needle and used all but a few yards of the ball. (I began to wonder if I was going to run out at one point!)
This is the link to the FREE pattern: http://makemydaycreative.com/2014/05/02/summer-sprigs-lace-scarf/
You could use many other yarns such as light lace ones, alpaca, cottons and wool. You might need to block some of the other yarns but I didn't find it necessary with the cotton I used.
Below is a link to a video so you can see just what my finished scarf looks like.
I would like to thank Esther at www.makemydaycreative.com for making and sharing for FREE such a beautiful pattern.
Happy crocheting!
