I needed a good “car crochet” project to do while travelling up to my aunt’s and uncle’s farm.  This was it – the Crocus Scarf.

The pattern is a freebie from Interweave Crochet (you can find it on their website), and the yarn is Cleckheaton Bamboo, in the pink print colourway.

Okay, an orange top probably wasn’t the best colour to highlight the loveliness of the scarf, but at least you get an idea of scale when it is being worn!

This was a nice quick project – I actually finished it the same evening.  I’ve also seen it made with an extra repeat of the lacy pattern, making it wider (quiltingmick has crocheted a couple of beautiful versions).  I used one of my nice new Clover hooks to crochet it – it was really lovely to use, well worth the purchase.  The yarn drapes beautifully – bamboo is so nice to work with!  I’ve got enough left for another scarf, or maybe I’ll use it to make something for Stella.
