Coats crochet nylon - Question by Allaya Diep

Scarf given as a gift by Allaya Diep
I knitted a scarf the other night from three balls of Paton's Pebbles yarn (black with brownish colored "pebbles"), increasing one stitch at each beginning and end of row (i suppose it's more of a mini-shawl). I gave it to my friend visiting this week, and she absolutely LOVED it! :D She can't...
