It was time to pull out the Christmas decoration boxes from the closet--Of course, it's the closet where our coats, scarves, hats are stored as well.
While I was taking boxes out, there was a hanger with many scarves--I haven't had a chance to wear any of these lovely neckwear lately. We live in warm temps==some times we might have a week of cold temps but most often, temps are mid 60's. When we have a cold front pass through, we are all so excited to pull out all those warm things.
I love my scarves! Most I have made, which is indeed an added love.
This scarf was knit with wool and a stainless steel yarn after the scarf is knitted, I placed large wooden beads through the scarf--tightly tied with stainless yarn.
So much fun! Once the balls have been added, do the felting thing! Wash scarf in hot water and then rinse in cool water. Let dry completely, if you can wait that long! cut out the balls to see the results!
Love this scarf 'creature'
This scarf was free form knitting/purling. I used some of my hand spun.
Cast on number of stitches you want--for a long chain, cast on many many stitches; join into a ring; then knit, knit and continue to knit until you are tired of knitting, then switch to purl--continue in the fashion till width wanted; bind off and you will have a lovely scarf to wind around your neck.
This one was fun to make. It's 'spaced dyed' yarn--suppose to be planned, but heck I can't plan anything! Too much trouble! placed on loom, wove and wove--this is a long, long scarf!
This wool scarf used two different skeins of yarn.
cast on 36 or 40 stitches--knit one row, purl one row, change yarns,
and continue until you run out of yarn. This is a great scarf for man or woman. Think this is Noro silk garden yarn
This was another fun scarf to knit--I found this lovely ribbon yarn==Yes! ribbon yarn.
cast on whatever number of stitches you want and knit! That's all-- just knit! till you are tired of knitting or run out of yarn. I love this scarf! Wraps around my neck in such lovely fashion.
Don't be afraid to try different material to create beautiful neckwear!
MAnd oh my! this scarf was from a year of texture yarn stitches--so many years ago.
