For the past bunch of years I have been sending scarves to "Chase the Chill Edmonton". They give scarves to those who need one to survive the cold Canadian winters. It's an amazing group of women who make hundreds of scarves each year.
Making scarves to donate is also a great way to use up some bits of yarn :) I love scarves with color! So this month we will make an infinity scarf in 3 colors & 3 different stitch patterns.
Lluvercky is one of the testers that created the scarf. This is a photo of her scarf and what she said about the pattern/test:
Not your basic scarf! Choosing colors, regular or infinity options and three sets of stitches are some of the reasons that make this scarf interesting and fun.
Today (Thursday) I will post the Materials list. Tomorrow (Friday) I will add the first section of the pattern, then on Saturday & Sunday I will post a section each day. You will have until Wed to finish the scarf and post a photo for a chance to win a pattern of your choice from Start Crochet!
You can purchase the pattern for $2 here on Ravelry:
