Hand Knitted Scarf in Freeform


 I've been having fun doing some knitting here lately.  Most of my scarf designs are crocheted but I dug out the knitting needles recently to work on some free form knitted scarves.



For this one of a kind design in shades of aqua blue I've used an assortment of yarn types to create the unique pattern changes in this whimsical scarf.



I've added some tassels to the end of this 72" long scarf for just that extra touch of whimsy.  You'll find it in my store front here.  These scarves are a great way to use up small bits of yarns that would otherwise just linger in a basket of leftovers.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look. Happy New Year!!

Crochet Flower Brooch



I've recently created a few soft and elegant Irish Rose brooches to add charm to your coat, jacket, scarf, or hat. I hand crocheted them using a beautiful acrylic roving yarn, added some jewel tone glass pearl beads to their center and hand sewed pins backs to the back of each flower. Their both about 3.75 inches in width and only $7 plus shipping in my Etsy.com store front.

Crocheted Aqua Blue Scarf



 

The top 3 cowl scarf photos are all the same scarf.  Look at all the different ways that this versatile scarf can be worn.  Adding a crocheted Irish Rose brooch adds a splash of color as well.

The 4 photos below are all of one of my Lacy Ruffle Scarf designs.  Here again, you can get different looks depending upon how you wrap it around your neck and accessorize it.

The ruffled top part of these scarves can be worn up or it can be folded down on to the scarflette base. Photos can be enlarged by double click on them.

Fiesta Wave Hand Crocheted Scarf


I recently saw the pattern for this scarf over on Raverly.com and thought "this is too cool...I can make this"!


It took a number of hours to crochet just the body of the scarf and then hand sewing on those 16 metal beads to the hand crocheted fringe attachments really added more time.  It was time well spent since the end result is so fabulous.


This colorful scarf has the feel of cotton and is super soft. Wave after wave creates the one of a kind color pattern in this whimsical scarf design. Feel free to click on the photos to see close up details.  You'll find this scarf for sale in my Etsy store front.

Birthday Present


I just finished up this beautiful scarf for a friend of mine who is celebrating a Birthday soon.  It took far longer than I had thought to crochet it.  I really love the colorway created with Red Heart Yarn's Unforgettable in Meadow.  The pattern wasn't difficult but it was labor intensive with the fine Acrylic roving yarn that I used.   Feel free to double click on the photo to enlarge it for a detail view.
