Berries in the Snow Scarf

if you don't block it it twists and looks like this This little scarf was so much fun to come up with!!! At first I was thinking I wanted a peppermint type scarf and I found a yarn that was a deep red and white however after making it I wasn't happy with peppermint as a name ( look this week for my peppermint twist slouch hat!) so I went over to the AllFreeCrochet  facebook page  and asked for help naming this! WOW over 100 comments with GREAT fun names it was hard to choose just one so I went with the one that had the most likes! Thank you to Sam Henderson for the winning name!! if you block it, it will lay flat like this supplies: any 4 ply yarn.... I use redheart team spirit burgundy ( looks red to me)  and white j hook ( I am using my J a lot lately) * in this scarf you always want to dc around your chain 6 NEVER dc around your triple* This scarf was inspired by  queen anne's lace * there is lots of turning so don't get dizzy, and don...

Queen Anne's Lace Scarf

Made with Redheart Shimmer I saw a photo of this Vintage lace pattern and fell in love but I couldn't find a free pattern and so after hours ( I won't tell you how many!) I came up with a pattern :) This is my way of making it based off of the picture! I love this sooo much!! If you use 4ply yarn you can make a quick and easy scarf or use crochet thread and make a pretty edging! Supplies:  any yarn and the hook the yarn suggests you use. I would stay away from anything above a 4ply. Lacey stitches don't hold their shape as well when made with a larger hook and ply yarn. I've made scarfs with this pattern using Bernet Mosaic, Redheart Shimmer, 2 strands of Vanna's Glammar, Loops and Thread's Impeccable, and Caron's simply soft. What will you use? Comment below! Grab your hook and yarn and lets GO!!! Beginning Motif: Magic circle or Ch5 and join Ch 3, 13 DC into the ring. (14) DO NOT JOIN! Chain 1, turn. SC into the next 2 DC. *CH4,...
