Scarves Galore

Scarves Galore
The Easter Crafting Marathon continues. I’ve finally finished my red mohair scarf, which you can see below. The other two are scarves I’ve made in the last couple weeks.

Snookums and the Rock Star Scarf  Me and the Red Mohair Scarf  Blue-green Mohair Scarf

First you have Snookums modelling my “Rock Star Scarf”, which is knitted out of Faux Fur. It’s this crazy yarn with lots of little hairs sticking off it that actually looks like fur once you knit it up. (Let me warn my fellow knitters: It was insanely difficult to work with. You can’t see any of the stitches so if you drop one, you have to start all over.) The second and third scarves are both made of mohair, which is incredibly soft and fuzzy and beautiful. I did the blue-green one first as a gift for my Dad’s wife Cindy, and I liked it so much I got the red to do my own. Pretty nice, huh? They’re both about six feet long and six inches wide. I can’t wait to wear mine outside (if it ever stops raining)…

  1. Wow! I just got my scarf and I have to say the picture on the blog doesn’t do it justice. It’s so beautiful! Lucky for me we are expecting snow tonight (that’s right folks), so I’ll wear it tomorrow. Thanks Kris! Perfect color and so soft too.

  2. Hooray! Wow, I’m glad you’ll be able to get some use out of it! I was worried it was too late in the season.

  3. And I got a really cool hat…..FOSTERS…..Australian for Beer…..love it.
