Soul Searching Scarf

Did you catch my Facebook Live event debuting the Loops and Threads Kaleidoscope and Barcelona yarn by Michael’s?  They are sponsoring the ELKies once again with some amazing yarns!

Today, I’ll be sharing the Soul Searching Scarf with you using the Kaleidoscope yarn.  It’s a wonderful super bulky weight yarn made up of mainly acrylic with a little bit of wool too!  It’s a squishy and soft yarn that I’m sure you’ll love.

Please Favorite or Queue in Ravelry!

Plus…..one of the great benefits of working with a super bulky yarn is that it won’t take you very long to crochet your projects!  The Soul Searching Scarf will make great Christmas projects too everyone!
