Scarftober Round-Up
Scarftober 2022 is here!
Celebrate scarves with me all month long!
Welcome to the Scarftober Round-Up post here on the Capital Crochet blog!
For the past few years, I’ve celebrated the best month of the year (in my opinion!) with a collection of free scarf patterns here on the blog. Check out past patterns HERE!
This month, I am so excited to bring you the BIGGEST Scarftober celebration yet. I’ve teamed up with 28 of your favourite designers, and we will be showcasing an entire month of scarves, cowls and shawls. If you’re looking for a cozy new accessory to make, or if you’re thinking that a handmade scarf would be the perfect gift for someone special in your life, stick around - you’re bound to find the perfect pattern this month.
Everyday here on this post, there will be a new featured pattern. We’ve got scarves of all shapes and sizes, in knit, crochet and Tunisian crochet, and in all weights of yarn! There is something for everyone, so check back in daily to learn more about the pattern of the day and find out if the designer is offering a special little discount or promotion (spoiler alert: they definitely are!).

14 October - Plant Lady Cowl by Sun Daughter Knits (Knit)
The Plant Lady Cowl is a single skein lace cowl with leaves and twig bundles that I created while moving through the many emotions that come from leaving my home and friends (yes the plants I share space with become my friends). When I started the design it was with a sense of loneliness and loss, but as I knit it, I began to look more closely around me and to see that I am not alone. In fact many of the plant friends I thought I had left behind were simply waiting for me to notice them! Plant Lady Cowl was designed with Bad Sheep Yarn DK and is the perfect project for that one special skein of DK yarn. Learn more in the Design Diary on the SDK Blog.
