What was your inspiration?
I envisioned a design of ethereal fairies that would combine textured stitches and beads. For the fairies, a cable twist and eyelets define the body and wings, while a bead (placed with the crochet hook method) represents the head.
What are you most proud of?
This scarf is knit end-to-end in one piece. There is no sewing or grafting.
