Each time I crochet something I am amazed at how fast the project seems to go from “ball of yarn” to “finished”! On Wednesday I posted that I was going to start a new crochet project, on Wednesday night it was finished.
When we woke up on Thursday morning, the snow had already started. By lunchtime on Thursday, the temperature had dropped again to below freezing. The weekend should warm up a bit and I think it is the first time in six weeks that there’s no snow in the forecast. Anyway, you’d rather know about my project, right? Pattern is the Ocean Air Scarf, a free pattern from Fiber Flux, and the yarn is Mountain Colors Twizzle in Cornflower. I modified the pattern slightly, working a total of five rows before the scalloped edge. This used just over a half-skein of the yarn, so I still have about 100 yards to do something with: mitts? baby hat? cowl? Any of those would be lovely. You can see here that I can wrap the scarf around my neck, but it is still on the shorter side as scarves go.
That is a gorgeous scarf – the colourway is beautiful. Love the photo of you in the snow too. Matching mitts would be great.
thank you!
Great scarf!
I don’t usually love crochet, but that’s a great scarf!
I have come to love crochet! When it’s right, it’s right!
great scarf and yarn. Love your pic with the snow.
Thanks so much!
Love the colour of your wool, and very brave photo.
Thank you! Luckily I didn’t have to stand out there too long!
Love both the pattern and the yarn. You really can’t go wrong with Mountain Colors!
agree!
Super pretty! I love the color choice. A nice pop of color for winter. 🙂
