a cowl scarf for Elise

Dec 18, 2010

i thought i would "whip up" a quick scarf type thing for Elise... (shes not allowed to check the blog for a while so we can show you what we made her)

turns out it took DAYS to finish and set me back a ton on the rest of my stupid over ambitious sewing!!!!


luckily, it worked... only a few mistakes ;)


i kinda want to keep it...

i am not gonna do a crochet tutorial because i can only crochet a straight line (most of the time)
 but i will say that i chained a row long enough to fold over then i crocheted as many rows as  i needed to go all the way around my neck/shoulders and linked the 2 ends together like a super exaggerated circle scarf....

i cant wait to see how Elise will style this!!!!!

are you making any gifts this year? have you gone crazy yet?
i am nuts... it over for me, next year i will start my Christmas gifts in JULY!

  6. I love this cowl! I just taught myself how to knit and now I'm teaching my class. We're making coffee sweaters for their parents. My next project will be to make a cowl... but it'll have to be after Christmas when I have more time!

  12. Eeep! Love the scarf! Go you for making it! I have always thought that I should just make scarves all year and give them away as Christmas presents. But I never do it. And I never have any ideas come Christmas time. Oh well!
