SCARF

TO BE ACTIVATED SOON

This elegant lace scarf is lightweight and decorative for balmy evenings, offering a unique original design with a natural wilderness theme. The gauzy fabric drapes softly, creating a stunning accessory with floating opaque motifs. The motif design is presented in a set of panels that may be combined as desired to achieve a scarf or stole of any length. The garment is worked in an easy crochet diamond mesh, using shell stitches for the motifs, which are incorporated during construction.

Working tip

To mark your place in a complex lace design as you are working it, use a ruler that moves up the page as you work each row. When working from a printout, this can be physical ruler. When working from a digital screen, it can be a line that is drawn with the Comment feature in the Adobe PDF reader. The line is editable, i.e. you can first draw a very short straight line, then stretch it horizontally to cover the full width of the page, then move it upwards as your work progresses up the page.
