Vintage and Wool Blend Yarns

This was a very enjoyable project. I made this scarf from a Merino wool blend yarn I had purchased and a funky shimmery orange vintage yarn given to me by my grandmother. My grandmother has sent me baskets of yarn lately. I think she was cleaning out her closets. I have some other very interesting colors that I haven't figured out what to do with just yet. I will try to remember and post some photos when I figure something out. Until then, I will just keep you in suspense. ;)

Working with Yarn...and having some Crocheting Fun

Here are my latest projects. I'm making scarves. I thought since school is in and winter is coming, this would be a good time to get started.


My first two scarves are children's. They are loopy, fluffy and fun. I call them confetti scarves. The first is a combination of pinks and reds. Now I'm working on the same scarf in a larger version in traditional camouflage green. I guess it will be more like a pre-teen version.

These are the next fun colors I get to work with. I love the blues and browns together. The other is a very nice neutral. It has a sort of nutty texture. I haven't decided what I will do with these. :)
