Braided scarf in progress


This is the current project I am working on. I am knitting 3 separate 3" wide scarves that are 60" long


using Paton's Bohemian yarn. I am then going to braid them together, then place the ends back on the knitting board to knit a border of color on both ends. This is what I have done so far, just need to finish that last color.






This next one is a checkerboard 60" scarf. It is about 6" wide and I used the Paton's Bohemian yarn in 2 different colors.





Last week I came up with a reversible scarf. Now, I know I am not the first one to think of this...but I think that they are pretty darn cute. In the photo's below I turned up one end so you can see the second color of the scarf. The first one I made was a short one for a child. (didn't have enough yarn to make it longer) I used Baby Cloud for one side and Bernat Boa for the other side. Whata ya think? Cute huh?







These are 2 more reversible ones I've made this week.





Last but not least, this is my favorite reversible. The reversible's work best when you use 2 very thin yarns. On this next one I used Bernat Boa and Paton's Gllittalic which is so pretty and so soft, just the perfect yarn for this application. For a 60" reversible it takes 2 skeins of each color.


See how that Gllittalic just sparkles. Well that's all for now...Have a blessed day!
