Whitecaps
A free version is also available.
In the depths of winter, freezing winds whip up the coasts, frothing the waves into peaking whitecaps that crash against the shore. The Whitecaps scarf uses fisherman’s rib to mimic the foaming waves, and to keep you cozy as you explore the stunning icy scenery. The Whitecaps scarf matches with the Frozen Seas mittens.
This pattern is also available for free on my blog!
