The teardrop scarf is the perfect versatile accessory to any outfit. It can be worn as a neck scarf, hair scarf or even a bag accessory. The scarf can be knit with or without the beads. The pattern includes 2 sizes, size 1 (shown in plum) is the smaller size perfect for wearing as a hair scarf. Size 2 (shown in cornflower blue) is the larger size which can be worn as a longer neck scarf. This project is a quick knit that is great for using up some of those half skeins laying around.
