Well my Handmade Holiday 2010 is coming on apace and I’ve now made the following…
It’s from a free pattern from Lion Brand – Flirty Ruffle Scarf.
I wasn’t able to get a 11.5mm crochet hook, which I believe is the translation of a P-15, from my local wool shop the largest they had was a 9.0mm so since I am on a bit of a tight schedule (or sk doo lee – quirky pronunciation from an old friend) and tension wasn’t vital I used that.
The yarn I used was Sirdar Highlander which is a chunky with some wool in it and has an untwisted finish.
As I had used a smaller hook I had to add an additional row to make it an appropriate width.
So the current Handmade Holiday stats are
Made – 6/28 with 13 days to go
Panic level – 3/10
I assume as it is flirty that it is worn alone?
Keep that Panic Level down, no matter what!!
Really pretty scarf. Wish I could crochet.
Great scarf! I’ve bookmarked that pattern for future use.
Pretty!
Oh La La! I like this…..
Between this beautiful scarf and Roo’s Norie hat, I am strongly thinking I
have to start taking knitting and crochet lessons so I can get in on this. I am tempted to show the pathetic things I’ve made on a post just for cheap laughs from all you mega-talents across the pond. Glad you’re panic level is low.

Maybe I just need to knit!!! 😉
