Neverending Scarf

I know... It's been forever since I last post here in the blog. It's just that with Facebook around, it is easier to share photos over there.

Anyway, for those of you who are so nice to still see my blog after all, here's the scarf that I've been knitting for over a year (or maybe almost two). Simple rib with k1, p1; using two yarn held together, one red and one green. I was thinking of apples when I chose those two colors. Can't really see it well in this photo though...



Length: 1,7 meters.

Scarf for Grandma

I made this scarf for my grandma. She told me that the wind makes her cold, so she can't really get out of the house. So I decided to make her a scarf.



I decided to make it in dark blue and red partly because of practicality, as dark colours don't dirty as easily as light ones; and partly because bright colours don't really suit her anymore.
Hopefully she'll like it!

First Scarf

This scarf was requested by my aunt, and she picked the colour herself.
And thus I started on making my first scarf. Of course, the repetitive pattern makes it quite boring to make all the time, so I crocheted it in between making other things. But the nice thing about monotonous patterns is, the project is easy to bring anywhere, because you don't have to think and interpret patterns on the go.

Made in approximately 10 hours, on and off since Christmas 2008.
240 rows.

Length: 140 cm
Width: 9 cm
Weight: app. 95 g

Well, I can't wait to meet her again so that I can give it to her. I'll let her do the modeling for me and post the photo here later.

Beehive the Scarf

This is the first scarf I've made. Ever!

It does look like a beehive, no?



It is crocheted with a big hook, the first time I actually got a chance to use it.

Made with 3 different types of yarn held together.

Will list it on Etsy the moment I decided how much I'm going to sell it for. (The hardest part.)
