I am so ready for fall!! (I may have said that once before…)
This simple but elegant scarf is the perfect late-summer project. Made from a rich, golden-yellow blend of cotton and wool, it will keep the autumn evening chill at bay without being overly warm.
The yarn is called Serendipity Tweed by Brown Sheep, it is made in the midwest, the color is “Sunflower”, and I purchased it at the fabulous Oh Yarn It!–how perfect! The simple pattern created by the cables reminds me of grains of wheat…
