Every day I take my son and nephew to the playground. I grab a camping chair, my latest crochet project and I crochet my heart out while they climb, run and scream. I love this part of the day.
People in the neighbourhood always come up to me to see what I'm working on. Yesterday, I took my latest project, a scarf I'm making for myself. Three different people approached me and loved it, then asked me to make them one. I ended up making $30 simply sitting and enjoying the kids and hobby in the autumn sun. Awesome!
Infinity Scarf
I made this infinity scarf using a simple herringbone stitch. I wanted a nice texture, but without any holes that wind could find it's way through. Fashion is nice, but when it comes to Canadian winters, function is better.
Herringbone Stitch:
Yarn out, insert hook, yarn out and draw through st and first loop on hook, yo, draw through both loops on hook.
Herringbone Stitch
I've started the first of three ordered scarves, this is the first a tri-colour blue scarf using the same pattern.
Great way to use up scrap yarn
I'll be making two more in solid black. Hopefully I can get them done soon, as I have three blankets on the go and have been brewing up an idea for an afghan using a shell pattern.
