The Stargazer

Vincent van Gogh, post-Impressionist artist, is famous for his “Starry Night” painting, where he depicted the view from his window, a dark sky full of twinkling stars, a crescent moon, and concentric swirls of light. The Stargazer scarf has tiny bits of sparkle just like a clear night sky. For the scarf you have the option to use a fingering weight yarn with beads included, a fingering weight yarn that has metallic threads such as Stellina included, or use a fingering yarn and add your own beads (easy instructions included), or use a yarn with no beads or sparkles. It’s your choice, and either way you will crochet a beautiful scarf! The Stargazer is crocheted from side to side and you start with a few stitches and end with a few stitches. The rows are crocheted on the diagonal, increasing and decreasing on opposite row ends to form the boomerang shape. The edging on the top and bottom edges is crocheted as you crochet through the rows.
