Description
The ruffle effect of this scarf, created with simple increases in just four lengthwise rows, is very calming and satisfying both to wear and to crochet. With the elegance of mohair and the flamboyance of a boa, the scarf is luxurious and eye-catching. There are two different methods for crocheting the scarf; both will give the same effect, but the selection allows you to find your own comfort zone.
