This pattern is called Spring Petals Scarf, a free pattern I found on Ravelry by Ragamuffin. I adapted it for our Astral Yarn and love how it turned out! I used Star Bright White Astral Yarn by The Alpaca Yarn Company. The pattern called for a worsted weight yarn, and Astral Yarn is DK weight, also referred to as light worsted. A little lighter than worsted weight, I figured the DK weight might make the scarf a little bit more lacy looking. And so it did!

The Astral Yarn is a beautiful blend of 30% alpaca, 20% wool, and 50% Tencel. It has a sheen to it that is gorgeous and so sumptuously lovely to work with.
This is the scarf made up in Gold Rush, such a rich, pretty color, especially in the sunlight.
