Crochet Lace Scarf – Free Crochet Pattern

I have always loved lace and it’s so easy to create with just a hook and a string of yarn. Lace fan’s are fun and it can be a simple stitch to create.

As a young woman I learned how ladies in the Victorian Era would use a fan to communicate with a suitor, or to indicate whether they were affianced, or looking to acquire a fiance. A friend showed me this website that has a complete dictionary of fan talk.

 

Who knew it could be flipped over? I love how the Ladies Mirrored Fan Lace Scarf looks when using Mandala Yarn. While I was making the scarf I had to make a decision of whether to cut or not to cut. When I made the pink, blue, yellow and white scarf, I needed to cut the yarn because the blue was going to take over the scarf. I wanted to get as many colors as possible in there. After I was finished, I grabbed a few pics with a cell phone. (pic is below) and what a surprise to see that it could be flipped over to get a whole new look. Same scarf, two looks, or three if you want to wear it long.

This design was inspired by an older design that I published in 2012. The original design was intended to be a cowl that you can also be worn as a stole. You will find the pattern here.

 

Yellow is my favorite color and after making my first scarf with Narnia, I grabbed a partial cake of Draco. I was excited and anticipating wearing this with a brown skirt. Alas that yellow chartreuse isn’t a pleasing color for me to wear. No worries, I flipped it over and I like it much better!
