The Fungus Scarf is included in my 2024 Fungus advent but will be released for everyone on December 1st !
If you have any yarn advent sleeping in your stash it might be the occasion !
My theme for this round of advents was Fungus, I have been very inspired by nature of course, particularly by mushrooms, their variety of shapes and colors. When designing a pattern matching the advent’s vibe, I couldn’t help but picturing a walk in the woods in fall. I had in mind the image of a simple yet colorful scarf, the one we grab and wrap around our neck in chilly mornings. The kind of timeless accessory that never goes out of style.

The pattern is available in 2 versions : the 24 mini-skeins version or the 5-color version (with the Weekend advent or 5 fingering skeins sleeping in your stash).
