Hill is named for it’s fun shape. It starts out with just 2 stitches, increases to 24, and decreases back down to 3, creating a hill. Use 3 strands of Red Heart with Love yarn and large needles to make this project super fast and super warm. This scarf can be worn in a variety of ways but every way will keep you warm and cozy!
