It’s no secret that we love a good wrap here at Easy Weaving with Little Looms, and we know our readers feel the same way. Scarf, shawl, cowl, snood, or wrap—it doesn’t matter, we love them all! In honor of this perennial favorite project, here are 10 of the most popular scarf and shawl projects available for download right now in the Easy Weaving with Little Looms library.
1.) Candy Dot Wrap
By Christine Jablonski
Inspired by the candy dots of her childhood, Christine’s scarf is truly sweet. It’s woven with cottolin and just a hint of colorful silk for the “dots.” Christine used a simple pick-up pattern to make it even more special.
