Catch of the Day Scarf
Catch of the Day is the freshest fish scarf at the market! You will begin at the tail, working flat in fisherman's ribbing and using short rows and decreases for the shaping. Then, you'll divide your stitches and work the body and head in the round. Alternate colors in four-round stripes if you want your fish to wear a sweater!
