Clapotis and Misty Garden scarves
Just a gratuitous scarf shot – neither are finished but hey, I hadn’t posted anything for a while… :) The Clap you know, and the other one is a varient of Misty Garden from Scarf Style. It’s a mixture of some Alpaca my SP sent me in the summer and some Be Sweet boucle mohair… ...
