Crocheted this nerdy DNA double-helix scarf for @MightyMitochondria in the $5 Swap.
CLOSED: $5 Craft Challenge Swap Round 1 (SU: 9/19-9/25 SO: 10/19)
The color changes were… uh… significantly more difficult than I imagined they would be. (!)
I was pleased with it, although the pattern I’d sketched got all elongated when I actually worked it up.
But it does look like DNA, so it feels like a win!
The yarn is a cotton/acrylic blend. Got it a couple of years ago in a clearance bin for less than $2/skein.

That’s awesome! It honestly does look like DNA, even to my untrained eye.

The photos don’t even do it justice. It is so thick and cozy. Not to mention the even, perfect stitches. My nerd friends are going to be so jealous.
