Customer Reviews
I finished weaving this scarf and now working on twisting the fringe. It is my first experience with the Zig Zag yarn and was such a pleasure! This pattern uses it in the warp along with the other yarns then is plain weave for entire weft. It glides through the warp and is very easy to a keep an 8ppi. Highly recommend this kit for a beautiful scarf!
