Have made five of these scarves, but am having trouble finding a variety of colors in the Sashay yarn. Even Red Heart's web site is sold out of most of the colors. It is so frustrating.

I would name it Black Raspberry Swirl. It's a real pretty scarf for the spring or fall.

I just made this scarf, with the exact yarn and color. I think it should be called the Sparkling Pansy Swirl Scarf. With spring coming, it has all the right colors, right down to the leaves.

Soft Sashay Ruffles. I have made a lot of these for fists and everyone lives them. Easy to do, but the sashay yarn takes some hunting. There are other brands available that are similar but Sashay is the best priced for the quality.

The scarf should be named "the perfect scarf". I cannot tell you how many women I know are knitting it and it is an easy pattern that looks completely different depending on the yarn used.
