Waterstone Scarf

I love the blues and greens in the aquamarine family, and I decided to make a short scarf in colors that resemble those hues, with a bit of the "rejoice because it's spring" punch of a vibrant lime. Here you have the result! It is very easy to make, cute and feminine with its frilly edge and medellion gathering strap. Hope you like it!
