Springtime in Kalamazoo







This is a relatively easy scarflet to make. It is basically made in two shades of two colors. One side is made in dark green and light red, the opposite side is made in a darker red and a lighter green. The gathering strap is made in a variegated to give it a little more punch. An altogether happy little piece of neckwear.





Materials-


Red Heart worsted weight yarn Cherry Red (scraps)
Red Heart worsted weight yarn Kelly Green (scraps)
Red Heart worsted weight yarn Spring Green (scraps)
Red Heart worsted weight yarn Hot red (scraps)

Note- Because of the lace at the edges, this scarflet is worked in two separate pieces,
which in the pattern are called Side 1 and Side 2, and are stitched together at the back
to form the scarflet.

  1. Hi, I'm putting together a crochet site in Spanish (since there is not much good stuff in my language) and I wonder if I can translate some of your patterns to put on my site (always linking back to your blog), and offer more interesting projects to visitors to the site.

    My site is http://acrochet.cl/

    ps: sorry for the bad English, I'm using Google translator
