leloGram Scarf


 
  
  This scarf was completely inspired by the yarn. I fell in love with it on a recent yarn excursion and *had* to have it. I think this pattern is perfect for it. I used size 17 needles so the fabric is soft and chunky but not too thick. leloGram is a perfect gift knit - quick & easy but absolutely beautiful.

  


 This pattern is #3 of the 14 free weekly patterns that I will be posting here on this blog. Check out this post to learn more.
