I crocheted this while watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Special Edition) (think anyone will give me a shrubbery for my birthday?). As much as I love how crocheted shells look, I can never get mine to look right. The first stitch of the shell always looks awful. But I think this scarf looks great on the whole, well, as long as you don’t look too closely anyway. Merino Style was such a soft and squishy yarn to work with but it was a little splitty. Still, it did feel nice next to my skin.
I love how the scarf looked like a flower when balled up like this:
Pattern: One Skein Scarf from Stitch ‘N Bitch Crochet: The Happy Hooker
Yarn: Slightly more than 1 ball of Knit Picks’ Merino Style in Maple Leaf
Hooks: 8.0mm and 6.5mm

Belisi scarves are so beautiful! They’re having a big sale on their website and I just bought 3 scarves for $5 each.
