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. ;)

Everyone is Going Pink!

I got a message today from one of my fellow SEUS Etsy Team members, ClaireeyeDesign, saying she added my Pink Peony photo card to her newest Etsy Treasury. So, here it is. It's all Pink and oh so pretty!!!


This fits right in with our October promotion. Visit the SEUS teams shop blog and check it out.

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. :)
