Marshland Scarf

A triangular crocheted scarf designed to use two balls of dk yarn - those precious indie-dyed hanks or commercial off-the-shelf balls. The samples show one scarf worked in an alpaca/silk/cashmere blend, and the other in a commercial dk yarn. Starting at the narrow point, use one ball as you increase up one side of the pattern, and the second ball as you decrease back to a narrow point. A simple four-row pattern repeat makes this a mindful project when you just want to enjoy the making. There is a chart provided to help clarify the shaping for the scarf, and the pattern would suit an intermediate crocheter. Pattern is written in English and uses UK terms.
