Iris Scarf Lite

It’s May! I love the warmer weather (until July, anyway!), the beautiful flowers, and how blue the sky gets in the summer months! The only downside, is that I can’t accessorize with all my fall and winter scarves and shawls! To fix that, last year, I made my first crochet design, the Iris Scarf, in a light fingering yarn, which is perfect for the warmer weather!

Let me introduce you to the Iris Scarf Light.
