Description
I have never been happy with a super-skinny scarf. Because I love the texture of corkscrews, I decided to use that as a starting point to create a chunkier scarf. I crocheted a few long corkscrews and strung them together with strategically placed chains and slip stitches, creating the traditional silhouette of a scarf, with a twist. Named for the smoldering effects of the fiery reds and oranges of the self-striping yarn, this corkscrew scarf is funky but also functional.
