Bella Lana: Beautiful Yarn

This scarf is knit in a wonderful yarn – Misti Alpaca Chunky.  It’s about 48″ long by 4″ wide, so it’s not a huge scarf and it knits up fast.  It is, however, exceptionally soft and warm and it’s appropriate for both men and women.  It’s shown here in a lighter gray, but it would look great in a brighter color or a multi.
