Flower Petal Scarf
I used 3 balls of 100% baby alpaca wool for this (with some to spare)
but its only double knit, whereas the pattern suggests chunky wool and
big needles. The end result is lovely and soft - the wool doesn’t really
felt - it just fluffs up! But the scarf feels warm to wear, so I’m
happy. I added 2 extra flowers to the pattern, making it
1.2m long. As an alternative to a scarf, I think I could machine the
strip onto a classy backing material, for a table runner. Thoughts in
progress there!
