ADDING TO THE SCARF COLLECTION

I do love my scarves! I buy them or knit them. Love all the pretty colors and love making them. Here's three I've  finished over the past couple of months:


Believe it or not, this is meant to be a necklace. It's knitted by a pattern I found on the Internet and is made of wool variegated yarn from Hobby Lobby.


I found this  on the Internet, also. It's made from an Italian yarn--don't remember the name!--but the pattern came with the yarn. It's one of those specialty ruffle yarns. Love working on them.  This caught my eye because the colors were so unusual. It was called "English Garden". Wouldn't you know!!


This is my favorite. I ordered the pattern from the Internet and it was a breeze to knit. Size 9 needles, Simply Soft by Caron. It can be worn any number of ways and the rose is a pin-knitted separately from the scarf. I love the soft pink color. It's the first time I've ever used provisional cast on. Very easy!

I'm still working on some other projects like these. It's so warm down here that sweaters are a bit useless. I'm going to try some fingerless mittens and some cute hat patterns I've found.

Busy fingers always!!
