I haven't wrapped this, nor I have I made a card yet (eep!) but wanted to share this on Allison's Little Lovelies post. I have made a lot of these scarves, maybe 5 or 6 now, and I can't for the life of me remember where the pattern came from. I did alter the original, though.
This particular scarf is crocheted with a 4 mm hook, using 100% cotton yarn. It's the first time I've done something other than a dishcloth with this weight of cotton, and I found it rather unforgiving. The end result is still nice & soft & cuddly, but making it was a bit of a pain.
And, now for my goofy dog/model:
 |
| Look at those disbelieving eyebrows...'mom, do I have to?' |
 |
| This is ridiculous. I demand treats. |
 |
| Your idea of a treat displeases me. I hate your scarf. |
 |
| Supplies: patterned paper from Bella Blvd; butterfly stamp from Autumn Leaves; watercoloured with Broken China distress ink; rhinestone border strip from $store; standard circle Nesties |

Great scarf, Jessi! Love the pattern and colors--and model!--you used. The card does *indeed* go with that scarf. You should run with that!! And, oh, you were so clever to wrap that rhinestone border strip around into a circle to frame that pretty butterfly. That's perfect! Have a great weekend!!
Those pictures are priceless! I love your pooch! And is that a pig ear on the floor? My dogs live for those! :)
Your scarf is gorgeous! Love the blues and the design. I know nothing about crocheting but II know I like this scarf. :)
And the rhinestone border strip on your card rocks. Hooray for the dollar store!
