Introducing the Showers of Lace Scarf!


This one seemed to be on my needles forever, but that's because I kept stopping to work on hats.  Yesterday I finally sat down and finished it.......well, it still needs to be blocked of course........but I promised to share the pattern as soon as I finished!

It's not a hard pattern by any means, but I did find that I had to work on this when things were quiet......I would get too distracted and lose my place in the midst of all the yarn overs!

Still in progress!


Schnapps is looking for inspiration for our next project!
