I have quite a collection of soft, warm, floaty scarves to choose from, but each year when Winter rolls around, it seems that there are always new exciting colours and patterns that I just can't resist, I am quite sure that they are calling my name as I stroll past the displays.
*sigh*
So this year, as I waded through my wardrobe to see what Winter woollies would need updating in my small collection (here in QLD our Winters do not last long so spending a lot of $$ on Winter warmers is not needed) I decided that there would be NO need to add to my scarf collection. Enough is enough, right ?
Whoops, I failed.......
I didn't exactly go out and buy any new scarves, I promise ! but on a recent trip to my favorite "women's hardware store" Lincraft :) I came across the most gorgeous yarn that was perfect for making pretty scarves.
I couldn't resist
I purchased said yarn
And I have been whipping up some beautiful scarves ever since.
The colours are amazing, and though it is a little difficult to use at the beginning (I recommend watching the short movie clip in store) once you get the hang of it, the scarves grow alarmingly fast. So far I have made one in the purple and one in pink and I am heading out this afternoon to purchase a few more balls of this magical yarn :)
Shhhhhhh that part is a secret !!!!

I also love scarves - they are a great way to add colour to my wardrobe and so easy to take off when I am in the sauna called work !!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your knitting - I must get cracking on some more blankets - I've been a big slack and been on the computer in the evenings instead of crocheting for the poor little buggers !!!!
Have the best day and ENJOY !
Love, hugs and positive energy !
