Check out this luscious flower-y scarf – and download the pattern free!  A very thoughtful colleague just sent me word that Barnes & Noble’s how-to website Quamut.com is having a February special offer: free knitting and crochet patterns. 

I’m in the middle of a crochet project now (I can’t knit to save my life), but I am dreaming of the “Garden Bloom” scarf to fend off springtime chill. Except I’d do it in lavender, or maybe Medicine Buddha Blue (eh, Valerie?)

Here’s the crochet page, and here’s the knitting page.
