Coffee & Wool Knitted Scarf
Every week, Saskia crochets a new section of the Coffee and Wool stitch scarf. This week, she’s already on the 11th and 12th rounds! After last week’s roses, we have two repeat rounds again this week. The double crochets and arcs add a sense of calm to the scarf, and as you can see, the roses really stand out now!
For row 11, Saskia uses color 477, and row 12 is in color 2010.
A new episode of "Koffie & Wool" is posted online every Friday. The next episode will be on May 1, 2015.
