It’s time to be getting ready for winter! I would like to propose you to crochet an unusual baktus scarf. The homeland of these scarfs is Norway. They were generally worn as a part of traditional clothing. The baktus scarfs of rich people’s were decorated brighter with golden, silver threads and brooches. How you see I didn’t use golden or silver threads for decorating I just choose my favorite color of yarn and very happy with the result.
