A crochet companion to the knitted brioche scarf.

This Ancient Arts Yarn base, Revival, has been a long time favourite to crochet with. After working samples for the Lemonade & Brioche design, there was plenty of yardage left for a second design, which would have to be in crochet, using a beautiful textured stitch. Although not difficult to crochet, this stitch pattern will require a good ability to read your fabric and stitches from RS and WS of work.

The pattern includes additional samples with listed yarn and yardage, in mYak Tibetan Fibres, baby yak lace, double-stranded. The gauge is different and uses a different hook size. I’ve listed this at the end here, as well.
