It is also almost impossible to get good mini photos. They all turn out dark and fuzzy.
Soooo.....Out comes the yarn.
I pulled out all of the leftovers from socks and some balls of solid colors to compensate, if I need them.
I will probably add more than I take away by knitting and crocheting...but I am trying. Honest.
I found a crochet pattern magazine last week with this pattern in it. I know I could have made it without the magazine, but I am a sucker for pretty colored photos.
It is simply half a granny square pattern done in a solid color. They had a photo(underneath the scarf that I am doing) that had all of the colors of the rainbow. Who could resist a photo like that?
The key to making it soft and draped like that one in the photo is using a large crochet hook with thin yarn. So....That's what I am doing.
You know that I can't leave well enough alone. I had to try it in yellow too.
I also found a couple of fingerless mitts that I started to match the socks of the same yarn.
I do believe that I have enough to keep me busy until the sun comes out again.
Back to the hooks, needles and threads.
See you tomorrow. Hopefully it will be sunny.
Happy stitching! I wish you a sunny day tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI bought one of those daylight lamps from Michaels. It has saved my eyes and my photos on many an rainy day. :D
Speaking of Micheals - I'm on my way there now! Beads are on sale 50% off!!!
Kathi, I have two of those lamps...I can't work under them. They just aren't natural to me.LOL
ReplyDeleteI wish for a clouds, so we can see the scarf finished, it looks really nice!

I have to get my yarn out but I never can crochet or knit in the summer. Not sure why, other than the heat and the fact that I like to be in the garden.
ReplyDeleteHave fun, Casey!
