Brynne Delerson says
So pretty! I have zero crochet skills, but I was practically shouting in agreement with your line about liking having something for your hands to do while watching TV – I said exactly the same thing in my post about my wall hangings! It made me really happy to find someone who can relate to that 🙂
Julia Nyanyo says
It's so pretty, I love the idea of it longer too. The way you've created all that texture so simply is great. Could you add how much wool you used (just a rough guide would be great) so I can see whether I have enough in my stash – I have one in mind that I have about 100g of – will that be enough?
Alexis Middleton says
Hi Julia! Yes that should do just fine. I used less than on 70g ball. 🙂
Corey W. says
So cool Alexis! Love the scarf and the earings!

Lovely design! Following your instructions, I completed R1; ie, 112 fsc & joined to the starting fsc with a sl st. Now before commencing R2, I'm not sure whether I should turn the work around and crochet back from the sl st or keep going forward in the same direction. So my question is: After each Round, should I crochet in a circular direction or go back & forth? I'm stuck!
Alexis Middleton says
Hi Rhoda! Just keep going around in the same direction. You will be working around the outside of the tube. I hope that helps! Good luck!
