Shelly's Knitting Projects / Babushka 12/26/2002 I made this scarf for my mother-in-law for Christmas this year. I used two skeins of Koigu and the babushka pattern out of Knitter's Winter 1987 issue...inspired by my friend Jean H., who knit up a whole series of them over the summer and fall. Mom liked the scarf better than the socks she received last year.
