Introducing Fluid Frills crochet scarf pattern
Itās a joyful looking design for a bold accessory, although it could also look great with a more subtle colour scheme, e.g. using a gradient of light to dark shades of the same colour or as a joyfully multicolour scrap yarn project. The teardrop motif is easy and relaxing to work and can be made with any size or type of yarn as long as it is consistent throughout.
The Fluid Frills Scarf has an unusual shaped motif based design and really adaptable for different occasions and outfits. I could equally see this being worn, made in thick aran yarn with a winter coat or in silk with a fancy wedding outfit. I wear it with a favourite bright blue wrap dress mostly but it could certainly work well over another handmade like a pullover or jacket.
The simple stitch repeat and motif method make this a fun project with interesting texture. I was really motivated to work the frill on each one.
My inspiration for this project comes from oil on water marbling that can be applied to paper fabric or other items. I love watching videos of the marbling ink being combed!
I set to work swatching and sketching and came up with the colourful piece above and here are the colours I was sent by Scheepjes yarn to create the finished piece.
I really enjoyed working with the lovely shades of the Scheepjes Metropolis sock type yarn and seeing the marble design come to life. I noticed that working with complementary colours like blue and orange is really successful for me when designing multicolour projects. My Day at the Beach bag pattern, Granny's Yarn Square and Vivid Bauble patterns use complementary colours. Metropolis has a huge range of colours too, so you're sure to find a combination you like if blue and orange isn't your style.
