Light From Within

“Dream. Let nothing dim the light that shines within you.” --Maya Angelou

I love this quote! We all have an inner light, a dream, within us. It’s important to keep that light bright, stay focused and hold onto our dreams. My Light From Within scarf has little “windows” to let the light shine through. Light From Within is a clever cowl version of the classic boomerang-shaped scarf. It has the same shape and drape, and gives the same look as the popular boomerang scarves in a very easy-to-wear version. The cowl is crocheted at and the rows are on the diagonal. The stitch pattern of the main section is an easy- to-memorize two-row repeat. Once you reach the specified stopping point, you crochet the lace section of nine rows. Then, I recommend wet blocking the scarf before sewing the final whip stitch seam to join in the round. This is an easy and fast scarf to crochet and can be made in one afternoon.
