Hydrangea Scarf

Using an ombre yarn to create large 3D flower motifs, this scarf looks like the blue and violet colored hydrnngea’s. One of the exciting parts about hydrangeas is that their color is determined by the minerals in the soil. Pick up your crochet hook and see which direction the colors of the yarn take you with this cozy pattern.
