Make a glamorous scarf! With shimmering Glitterspun, you will have an accessory that dresses up any outfit, whether it's adding high-style to casual-wear or a touch of elegance for an evening out, this lacy scarf is a stand-out piece. Make it in Silver (pictured), Sapphire, Amethyst, Onyx, or Ruby for a piece as unique as you are!

Our kit comes with 3 balls of Glitterspun in the color you select, as well as the pattern for this item. Crochet hook and other tools not included. Quantities limited.

When I give a knit or crochet gift, I make up an index card that has the care instructions and fiber content. I like to include the fiber content for people, like me, who are allergic to some fibers that may be in a blend where it is not immediately apparent. This could be especially useful to anyone who sells their work at craft fairs. I have passed up lovely items because someone was unsure of the fiber content.
