Pattern Description from MarnieMacLean.com: “Starry Night is a furry yarn with sparkle. What girl wouldn’t want to feel sexy and fabulous at the same time? This is a project you can do in an evening and still be able to go out afterwards to show off your work. I think you’ll be surprised how warm these little guys can be as well. It’s like wearing a scarf without any excess to deal with. I think that means these are practical to boot. Make some for your grandma and see what she thinks.”
