1st finish for June….

DSCF8917

this scarf is my first finish for June, can I tell you a secret…… it was meant to be something else but I didn’t have enough wool to do what I wanted  so I adapted the snowflake blocks I’d already made and added a few more to lengthen it and TA DA!!! a scarf was made. I love it and can’t wait to wear it and this one is not going to be kept in a drawer and only used for special occasions either it’s going to be worn and worn often!

I also forgot to show a photo of the scarf I made for Keryn as a thank you for hosting us all this past weekend Smile

This blanket is also nearing the finish line, I just need to crochet an edge around it and it will be done but it’s HUGE! so it may take me another week or two before I can call this one done and ready to use at the end of our bed it should look lovely sitting over the top of our white jacquard quilt Smile

Both of your scarves are lovely. Well done to adapt your blocks to a different purpose.
Good luck with the blanket, too.
