My Irish Heart Lace Scarf

Here is a Valentine’s Day scarf that conjures up a spring day in Ireland while in the midst of winter! There are hearts wrapped in leaves which travel up the center of the scarf, as well as a leafy border at each end. This lace scarf is knitted in a springtime colored, lace--weight wool yarn. So, though it is light and airy, it is still warm and cozy. There are written as well as charted directions for this scarf, which is knitted in halves from the bottom border up to the center, where it is joined with the Kitchener stitch
