Hyacinth Scarf: A new crochet pattern

Published 5 months ago • 1 min read

Reader

I have a new crochet pattern for you today. It has been a long time since I have been able to share a crochet pattern with you. It feels good to get another one out. Say hello to Hyacinth Scarf.

​

When I first started to work on this pattern all the way back in January I had all the plans to make it have the same texture as my Hyacinth Hat. With all the bad news my mind kept wandering and I kept forgetting to add the crossover row. I thought, "well if I'm struggling so will everyone else." So I simplified and adjusted, And I'm so pleased that I did.

This scarf starts with just 3 crochet stitches to a row and slowly increases to your desired width, and then decreases again, making this 50g scarf a quick make to add a great pop of color to your wardrobe. you can find it in my Ravelry Shop.

Thanks, and happy crafting, Julia

It all went way too quick, and it required me to have easy projects that I could...

Restful Hat In my quest for using up the yarn I have. I decided to use up some mini skeins.

Reader It doesn't seem possible that the cold weather is just around the corner. I wanted to get this pattern out to you early so you could have it finished before you really needed it. This is a stranded knit pattern with a chart and instructions to make this beautiful cowl. This time I decided to make it with a DK weight yarn for the extra squish and warmth and I'm so glad that I did. It uses 200 grams of yarn. Unfortunately it uses 110 grams of the background color so you need 3 skeins...
