Crochet Patterns: In the Neighborhood Set for Holiday Blog Hop

I’m sharing my first pattern as part of the 2017 Holiday Blog Hop today, and guess what? It’s actually TWO patterns — for the In the Neighborhood Slouchy Hat and Keyhole Scarf, a coordinated set! I originally designed these patterns for the Yarnbox Classic Crochet subscription’s July 2017 shipment in the new-to-me (and stunningly beautiful) Neighborhood Fiber Co. Studio Worsted yarn.
