I love scarflettes. They’re cute, warm, quick to make and yet highly functional.
I’ve just created a new Flickr group, “Scarflettes galore !”. I hope you’ll join us !

I’ve redone my first Kureyon beret, the one that i keep for myself. Some would say it doesn’t do a huge difference but it does. It’s smaller and cuter and just the [...]
