So far I have made 2/10 Scarves. I am in the middle of designing a third.
I used a basic Double Crochet stitch for one scarf:
and I used the "Strawberry Wine Cable Scarf" Pattern for the second:
I also made a couple of colorful headbands with some yarn gifted to me by Nina:
The yarn is 50% Soy Silk and 50% wool. South West Trading Company, Karaoke-299
I also used the Double Shell Headband Pattern, which is a free pattern, for these two.
I absolutely loved the yarn for this and I'm going to look into getting more yarn. The Soy Silk tones down the wool's scratchiness. Wool doesn't usually make me itch but some wools do seem a little rough. This one is so soft and smooth, I wish you could feel it through the screen!
I am about 40 rows away from being finished with a blanket that I have been working on for a while. My goal is to have that finished by the end of this month. To do that, I want to try to crochet at least 5 rows a day (starting tomorrow because I work all day today). If I kept to this, I should have it finished by the 25th of September. Then I could concentrate on finishing the design for the hubby's blanket and the rest of the smaller projects.
The scarves will only take me a couple hours each, if I use patterns that I already have, and stop designing new ones. The shawls will take a little longer. Which, I started on one shawl and I'm really loving the pattern. I will make a new post about that, since this one is already stuffed with pictures.
So, right now, I am working on a new scarf design, a shawl, and a blanket. I want to finish this scarf and another scarf before I switch over to hats.
Please remember that you are beautiful and well loved.
