Free Crochet Pattern – Leif Carrot

I also stepped out of my regular pattern and made this super cute Flareon.  I love using a needle felting tool to attach the wonderful fluff.

I also started attaching labels to my handwoven scarves. scarf label

This scarf is made out of Knit Picks Chroma in Avalon with a purple cotton warp.

I’m also going to a charity function this coming weekend. I decided to donate a gift basket of all Drunken Aunt Wendy has to offer.

Note: Almost the entire project is worked in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.

Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.

The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.

I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.
