Beaded Lace Knitting: Eden Scarf

Posted by on

TAGS:

Eden uses a luxurious, hand-dyed merino blend yarn, which is soft and warm around your neck. Beads at the bottom of the cowl add weight to a drapey fabric. It’s the perfect accessory to wear under your winter coat as it will keep your neck warm without adding bulk.
