I Should Have Used Mothballs

The pattern has been tested by my dedicated team of pattern testers and some of their incredible work is below.

Test Scarf/Wrap by Stephanie Fitzgerald Hall. Made using Premier yarn in the colour Tulip. I have to say I think Stephanie only has herself to blame for Moths eating this. Keeping it in a tree has to have something to do with it!!!

Moths Ate My Flower Scarf

This Scarf started out life as a plain old rectangle. I drew up my design and it was too perfect. Too symmetrical! My mind kept looking at ways to make it a little more unique!

Moths Ate My Flower Scarf. Made using Scheepjes Whirl in Night Time Bubbles.

Then the idea of a scarf that had been eaten by moths popped into my head. So this is my take on a shawl attacked my moths.

The result is a rather unique scarf which drapes nicely around the shoulders due to the Moth Eaten sections.

Designed for use with one cake of Scheepjes Whirl.

The pattern is now available on Ravelry (click here), Etsy (click here) and Lovecrafts (clickhere).

Materials:

3.5mm Hook

1x Scheepjes Whirl Night-Time Bubbles. 215-225 Grams = 1000m/1093yd per ball.  Approx 150m/164yd of one whirl left over.

Finished Measurements:

63inches/160cm long.

13 ½ inches/34.2cm wide. Measured across widest section of the shawl.

This scarf has been in the hands of my capable testers and as usual they produced some fabulous test scarves. These testers make my patterns what they are, without them, those making this Scarf really could end up with a dress or jumper instead of the intended scarf. I feel it very important to show off their efforts and I also do so in my patterns. Some of their makes are shown below. As you can see, the scarf can take on so many different looks depending upon yarn choice.
