Spring Shells Scarf

-This post contains affiliate links-

Today I am excited to be sharing a new scarf pattern as part of the 2018 Scarf of the Month Club hosted by Oombawka Design and The Stitchin' Mommy. Each month they each share a new scarf pattern on their sites and have a guest designer that also shares a scarf pattern and today that guest designer is me!

I wanted to make a scarf that was light enough for spring since it is the middle of March and spring will officially be here in just a couple of days. I used a lacy shell stitch for my scarf. It is a simple 2 row repeat that can easily be made as short or long as you want.

I originally made my scarf just a long straight scarf but as I was trying it on I decided that I might prefer it as a circle scarf. I ended up deciding to stitch the ends together before I wore it the first time. I t works really well either way you want to make it, just a matter of personal preference.
