I will absolutely do the Condo scarf! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteMade this great pattern and sent it to the Red Scarf Project. I learned to knit in Girl Scouts, and to crochet after I got married 40 years ago.

I would love to give this a whirl but I try as I might I cannot understand the stitches. I have tried looking them up but none of my books have these stitches. Is there an easier way to make me understand the directions?
ReplyDeleteMany people have successfully crocheted this scarf, so I don't think it is a problem with the instructions.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you can find a crochet teacher in your neighborhood to help you. I'm not able to do that long distance.
