Made It Monday - Broomstick Lace

Broomstick Lace is a crochet technique that I have wanted to try for a long time. It uses a crochet hook and a large knitting needle to create an open, lacy fabric. 


I didn't use a pattern for this scarf, but I did watch this video on YouTube for some help. It might look a bit complicated but it's really quite easy so I'm very glad I tried it. I have plans to use this technique some more in a few upcoming projects!
