EP0416
This simple motif reminds designer Kathy Merrick of Persian carpet Boteh (Old Persian for "cluster of leaves"). They can look like leaves, pine cones, pears, or paisleys. Each motif flows gracefully into the next, resulting in a swirled effect, and this lightweight wool yarn lends excellent drape to the whole project.

Yarn weight: #1 - Super Fine
Gauge: 24 sts and 15 rows = 4" in hdc.
Needles: Hooks: Size F/5 (4 mm). Adjust hook size if necessary to obtain correct gauge.

This scarf is so pretty! I receive complements wherever I go. Plus, being new to crochetting, it was an easy pattern for me to master.
