Chunky Crochet Scarf with Leather Snaps

Say goodbye to the traditional scarf pattern, and say hello to the Chunky Crochet Scarf with Leather Snaps! In this must-have accessory, a chunky crochet pattern and a leather strap combine to create a scarf that's stylish with a bit of an edge. Glossy snaps are placed on the leather strip so you can open or close the scarf as much as you want, while the crochet scarf pattern uses wool to create a warm and cozy accessory. The result is an avant-garde take on the traditional scarf pattern and may be just the challenge a crocheter needs.

NotesAccording to the blogger, you should avoid using suede as it's too flimsy. Additional notes regarding this project are available on the blogger's website.
