Make a fashion accessory, with very little knowledge of crochet.  You can make this  item with just knowing how to chain stitch, and double crochet.  This pattern can be purchased in my Pattern shop, which is aimed at beginner crocheters!  Any color of your choice!  Wrap it around the neck on cold winter days, or wear it loosely around the shoulders as shown in this photo!  Add a ribbon, or a torn strip of fabric, and it's finished!
