persimmon scarf

Yarn: Caron One Pound in color Persimmon

Hook:  J/6.0mm

Pattern: straight dc, ch 15, work 100 rows in back loop only, add a border all around in dc

Size: 5 1/2" x 66"


Although as I said in my post on the other scarf, this is not my favorite yarn to work with. However, I really like the way this one turned out. Working in back loops and the added border gives it a nice look.

Happy crocheting!
