Tonic Water
Tonic water is an airy lace cowl with a simple, but unexpected pop of color. The undulating lace pattern is gorgeous in the soft, delicate yarn, and the scarf is a quick and easy knit. As always, easier than it looks!
It can be worn long or wrapped twice around the neck, and if you’d like to alter the length or width of the pattern, instructions are included.
