When I was up in Portland, Oregon a few months ago I visited my favorite arts and crafts store, Craft Warehouse. They have a really unique yarn selection and I was totally blown away by this amazing variegated neon sherbet organic handspun fiber yarn. I bought as much as I could fit in my suitcase. After much deliberation, I decided that a layered crochet scallop pattern would take the mesmerizing design of this yarn to the next level on a shawl. And if that wasn't enough to catch your attention, I decided to trim the border with shocking blue netting and fringe. I am absolutely thrilled with the results!
I love shawls. They're so more fun, flattering and versatile than just wearing a jacket.
You can wrap a shawl around your neck and shoulders to create a layered cowl look.
The colors in this variegated yarn remind me of a summer sunset by the sea.
Crocheting a pyramid of scallops is like soothing arithmetic. So if you don't like counting, I do not recommend embarking upon this pattern!
