Graduate Scarf

£6.00

The Graduate Scarf is a texture-rich creation. With meditative and easy stitches, you will love making and wearing it. Because it can be scaled up to a cozy shawl or down to a quick bandana using whatever yarn you have on hand, it is the perfect project for gifts and stash-busting. The clever texture created by the short rows will leave everyone wondering if it is “really crochet”!

The pattern includes detailed written instructions, photo and video tutorials, as well as a custom interactive yarn calculator to help you figure out the optimal size and yarn needed for the scarf of your dreams!
