The crochet Spring Breeze Lace Scarf is a light and airy scarf perfect for chill Spring days and Summer nights.
For this simple and elegant scarf, I used a stitch that I call Lace Shell Stitch.
Of course, this is not an official name, but since I didn’t know what to call it, I went for “lace shell stitch”.
Overall, the pattern created by the lace shell stitch is very delicate, airy, and simply stunning!
In this blog post, you’ll find the free crochet pattern of the Spring Breeze Lace Scarf accompanied by a step-by-step photo tutorial to help you with the crochet lace stitch.
