There was plenty of down-time at Three Hummock Island in the evenings. While the family chilled out in front of the fire my fingers were busy making this.
It's a very simple pattern, inspired by this image. The pattern for which can be found in this book.
I didn't have the pattern so just winged it. Three chain, one double crochet/treble crochet, three chain, etc.
I found some cute little badges for Adelaide at the Red Hill Market on Easter Saturday. It helps make the scarf a little more interesting.
The yarn was a Rowan Amy Butler wool cotton blend. I think it would be more cuddly in a pure wool or cashmere. But this was all I had on hand when we quickly packed to go away. Perhaps another one is in my future.
that is gorgeous Kris - I miss you, do we have a date on Thursday night??

Adelaide is looking very stylish, just like her mum.

I am teaching my 7-yr old Granddaughter to crochet and I think she is almost ready to try this, she can chain and DC (barely but she is getting better with practice!)
