Here's the scarf I made for moi.
And the one that I used to demonstrate the pattern found here, in my Etsy shop.
My ski parka was in need of a little pop of color,
and some extra added warmth.
So I matched the aqua of the coat and the light gray of the inside of the coat,
with some extra added "pops".
I can't help it, but I like pink, and yellow, it's just plain happiness!
Oh, and then there's white, it must be incorporated at all costs. :-)
It's long enough to wrap around twice!
Ready for the slopes!
I am so excited about this scarf that I am now working on one
in various pinks and navy blue to coordinate with my pink trench-coat...stay tuned!
And remember changing up the colors and leaving off the
shell edge gives it a completely different look:
And a BIG congratulations
to the following for winning the free scarf pattern
with the correct guess of "Mini-Al" as the answer to the question
"What name did I use for this lovely scarf model in a previous post?"
Louise in Australia (I don't think Louise has a blog)
Ruth in India at the Shabby Chic Crochet blog
Elisabeth D. of England, living in Spain at the Elizy Art blog.
Thank you for playing along. :-)
Happy Crocheting!
Please Keep Warm!
I love the colours you've used to match up with your ski parka! I love grey with most colours too, it's such a lovely neutral colour and exists in so many shades. The one you used is particularly soft and nice. I really like the scalloped edging too - it gives that feminine touch! Well done!
ReplyDeleteYay Astri!! Thank you so much for this wonderful chance to win your pattern! I have received it and can't wait to start working on it. I am wrapping up my work here and ready to fly back home this weekend. Once i am home and settled, I will start working on that.
ReplyDeleteI love love love the color combination on both the scarves. They are so beautiful!!
I love this color combination too! I love the pattern, I am so lucky to have won a copy :) Have a great day Astri xx
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your winners, I like the grey combo with the shell edging and the way that it can be adapted to be two different patterns and colourways! xx
ReplyDeleteAs usual you have crochet a work of art! I was wondering what yarn you used because I love the colors?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the nice comment. Get this...it all came form the stash. The gray, yellow and aqua are Stylecraft arcylic DK and the pinks and white are Encore worsted wool blend. A strange combo, but I ended up liking the variations in texture.
DeleteLovely, lovely! And hooray for the lucky winners too!

The gray one is just beautiful! Love the stripes in both versions, though.
ReplyDeleteVery very nice Astri! love the colour pops and against the grey and aqua. E x
ReplyDeleteI think I prefer the grey one. The colors are so striking and the scarf looks so delicate.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful as always!
