I cannot believe how incredibly fast this entire year has passed by. Is it really December already?! I went to work this morning in a swirl of snowflakes - pretty appropriate.

There's no better time to show you one of my favorite scarf patterns - the Midori scarf by SpillyJane, which is available for free download on Ravelry.

My version is knit with Misti Alpaca Hand Paint Worsted (2 skeins). The simple lace pattern knits up quickly and looks great in variegated and hand painted yarns. I made the scarf extra, extra long so that it could be wrapped around my neck multiple times. The fringe I added makes it a bit fun to wear.

Which scarf patterns are you knitting and wearing this year?
