Snowflake Scarf

I wove this scarf for my granddaughter’s au pair. She will be going home to Thailand in July after having spent 2 winters in PA and experiencing snow for the first time. I chose the snowflake pattern and wove it in white and light blue to remind her of the snow and ice. Woven by Barbara Hohenwarter.
