Finished Object: Cheveron Scarf
This chevron scarf from Last Minute Knitted Gifts was so much fun to knit… when I started. I added an extra repeat in the middle to make it wider because I like to wrap scarfs around my head in the rain. It’s such a mindless easy pattern, with only one pattern row out of four: …
