Sharad Ritu Scarf Free Crochet Pattern

Namaste friends, 🙏

Hope you and your loved ones are healthy and joyful.

The year 2022 just flew by, but for all the good reasons.
After being under lockdown for almost two years, last year I travelled with a vengeance. 😀
But then it meant I couldn't blog, as access to the internet was an issue.

March is National Crochet Month (US) and it seemed like a good time to plunge back into the blogosphere. 

And I come bearing gifts, I mean a free crochet pattern. :)

The free pattern is for a crochet scarf which I am going to call the Sharad Ritu scarf. 
Sharad Ritu is the Sanskrit name for the Autumn season. So you may call this scarf Autumn Leaves scarf or Falling leaves scarf as long as you please give this pattern a try and make the scarf.

Namaste friends!

I am hoping to share a few patterns that should hopefully relieve the boredom if you are a crocheter.
