So today we shall start off with some craft from yours truly. Below are two more one skein scarves I made for some good friends birthdays.
First up a yellow number for C.
This was made from the One Skein Scarf pattern in Stitch & Bitch: The Happy Hooker, but also available here for free.
I really enjoyed making this one, it was so quick and the edging made it turn out really pretty. I added another row of dc to the middle and still had some left over at the end so could have possibly done another one but didn't want to risk it. Ripping out is the worst ever.
Yarn: Cascade 220 Peruvian Wool, in yellow
Hook: G 4.25mm
Time took: One evening in front of Extreme Make-over Home Edition and Family Guy
This next one was for another internationally jet-setting friend A, who might not get it till she gets back to her Mum's house in NZ. But I can't wait any longer to show y'all.
A ripple scarf loosely based on this pattern, but I changed the number of base chains and rows.
Chained 250 + 3, did 7 rows. 1,750 dc stitches all in all. Ripple crochet is so fun to do, but would have been more so in a variety of colours. I'm building up to that blanket!
Yarn: Cascade 220 in blue.
Hook: G 4.25mm
Time to finish: 2 nights in front of the TV
This one also doubles as a good sea for pengy to go swimming in...
And now for all of the one skein scarves together. Drum roll.......

ReplyDeleteThese One Skein Scarfs are soooo cute.
ReplyDeleteI am mildly obsessed with figuring out a good ripple pattern that I like to make my niece a baby blanket.
I think I will try to make myself a scarf in purple (btw, I love the purple bouquet of flowers, awesome coloring) first.
The link you put in this post is for a main page...did you mean to point to the Susan B's pattern?
