Looks great, and yet is still simple enough, with the double stranded and stitch used, to whip up fast!
ReplyDeleteI really like the pop of color as the two bottom rows. It turns a monotone scarf into a little jazz.
I heart this pattern! I needed a nice pattern for the hubby, so this comes just in time. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI love the ad, btw - "Dave is taken... but the pattern is free." Love it!
Very nice! A great project for my daughter. She crochets. I knit.
ReplyDeleteOh, by the way, I've been meaning to post about a great knitting involved movie. It's a foreign film, "Wool 100%" in Japanese with English subtitles. I think you would get a kick out of it!
