Spring Crocus Scarf – PDF Weaving Pattern

$8.00

By the time March hits, I’m eagerly awaiting the first glimpse of spring in Southern Ontario. While I still have a little longer to wait, one of my favourite signs are spring crocuses — the small burst of purple and blue usually follow the snowdrops in announcing spring’s arrival.

The Spring Crocus Scarf borrows colour from this returning life, combining areas of straight twill with more open, lacy sections. This spring weather scarf is thin and good for tucking under or over coats — perfect for those in-between days when it’s not warm yet warm enough to go without one. While there are a lot of colour changes, the simple threading and treadling make this an easy project, and its narrow width is suitable for table or floor looms. After months of bulky winter gear, this lightweight scarf is a pleasure to weave and wear.
