Loving this new scarf, called Coorabella, my inaugural project on Ravelry. It's my first 'pattern' - a very simple shell design but it has created a dense, cushy effect that feels very snuggly. The border was an experiment that worked: I used the contrasting red/brown Harmony Moda Vera wool and worked back along the first row which created circles rather than the half shells. They look a bit like the pulled thread fabric circles that are often used on bags or in quilting. It's such a straightforward pattern, much easier than I expected or indeed it looks! I'm two thirds of the way there - if I can ever get off this computer I might finish!!
These are the wools I used, the chocolate brown is Kicky and the multi-colour red/brown is Harmony, both Moda Vera.
