Something You Can Snuggle Up In

In John Wiswell’s novel *Someone You Can Build a Nest In*, Homily wears a scarf nearly everyday; she also knits. Without giving too much away, circumstances are such that Homily ends up with some spare time each year - she already knits, so it’s not too difficult to imagine that she might (like many of us) decide to take up another yarn-related hobby during that off-season. Something You Can Snuggle Up In is a scarf that would delight Homily as a new crocheter. It’s a simple triangular scarf that uses an easy stitch pattern to emphasize the bands of color in a color-shifting yarn - and it is designed to use every single bit of the yarn! You can easily modify the size by adding a ball of yarn or changing yarn sizes and hooks. If you're trying to work through your yarn stash, then this is a great pattern to use up every yard of a special skein - you'll weigh your ball of yarn as you go, stop just short of using half the yarn, work some transition rows, and then move to decreases to use the rest of the yarn.
