Dannette


I have run many times into advanced beginners who commented sadly that most of the patterns they find are above their skill level, and there are very few things that they can make. Dannette is a pretty scarflet which an advanced beginner who has learned to follow instructions in crochet language, can make and an intermediate to advanced crocheter will make almost with their eyes closed. It is a great project for charity and for gift-giving as well. It is a lovely keyhole scarflet that will stay comfortably put even in a high wind. Enjoy!

Jantinne


Jantinne is a Dutch name that means "God is Gracious," I think it is a beautiful name, and the meaning is even more beautiful and totally true! Jantinne is longer than most scarves I have designed but it is lovely and super easy to make. This is another ideal project for charity or gift-giving, especially if you're in a pinch.
