Although listed as “intermediate” difficulty, a confident beginner can make this project. The weather hasn’t decided firmly on what season it belongs in, at least in New York City. That means it’s still scarf weather for the foreseeable future. And, once it gets too warm for scarves, it will get cold enough (at least in the air conditioning) for shawlettes.

This is where lace scarves come in. They work in the cooler weather and in the warmer weather. And, since I used Bernat Maker Home Dec, a bulky, cotton-blend yarn, this particular lace scarf has excellent drape and is very breathable.

Although I rated it as an intermediate pattern because of the clusters, a confident beginner can definitely make the Clusters and Vs Lace Scarf!
