More Scarves.....

I figured since it's getting cold out and I usually make blankets why not make other things that I can either potentially use or add to my Etsy shop so I decided why not make some scarves, cowls, and infinity scarves.

Red Hounds-tooth by ELK Studio

Black Hounds-tooth by ELK Studio

Triple Purple Triangle Cowl by  Sara Dudek

All three were fun and quick to make. For the most part I followed the pattern directions except on the Hounds-tooth I chained 22 for the black & white one and 20 for the red & aran one. More info on the yarn and hook size I used can be found here and here.

Chevron Infinity Scarf

Although I love making blankets....and don't plan on stopping, I figured I needed to make some items that are quick and fashionable to add to my Etsy shop. Everyone like a nice scarf and winter is just around the corner so I figured that scarves, gloves, and hats would be a perfect addition. I know that there are tons out there but you never know when yours might be the one someone is looking for.

I had this Caron Simply Soft that I planned on doing a sweater but I haven't found the right pattern yet, so I saw the Rolling in the Deep scarf  and knew that it was perfect for this scarf. I like the way it turned out, The pattern was easy and worked up quickly.

Thanks for stopping by!!!

Cold Weather = Harlequin Hoodie

I have seen the pattern for the Harlequin Hoodie many times as well as on Ravelry. After looking at it I decided to make this. I figured it would be perfect for the upcoming cold weather over the Thanksgiving week. All the yarn used was from my stash probably all Red Heart which worked out really well because I didn't have to spend any money. Of course I didn't have it finished by then but it's complete now just in time for the next snap of cold weather.

                                  
I am happy with the way it turned out. I did add ch stitches to the hood as well as the cowl and added a few more rows to the hood so that it would be more oversized vs close fitting. I also tappered it off in the back with decrease rows so it would be sort of rounded instead of square. If I make another one I will follow the pattern exactly and make in a solid color except for the edging rows. And use a differnt type of yarn. Looking foward to wearing it soon.
