A simple scarf can be a whole lot of fun with the right yarn. Major offers a blend of colors that gradually change throughout the skein, and it is super-soft to boot. It’s no wonder so many people say it’s their favorite! The Carnival Scarf uses a shell stitch motif that repeats throughout, making this a great introductory crochet project, or just a relaxing project to work on and watch the colors come to life as you go.
