How to Crochet an Anthro Scarflet
The scarflet made by Anthropology is a simple small neck warmer type design, with leaf-shaped ends and a narrower strip connecting them. The original Anthropology product was a knit product, and knitters have been able to reproduce the pattern, but if you want to make your own and don't know how to knit, you can crochet one. Remember to use a lightweight yarn to most accurately reproduce the original design. As always, match the hook size to the weight of the yarn.
