It all started when....
I decided to make my mother-in-law a funky scarf for Christmas. After looking at many, many free scarf patterns, nothing was quite funky enough. So, I decided to create my own! Utilizing a lattice pattern that I have crocheted with before, I ornamented the design, and voila, created the Funky Lattice Scarf.
From what I hear, she wears it a lot. So much so that a teacher who works at her grandson's (my nephew's) school asked for one herself!
Here is the pattern. Hope you like it, too!
