A quick project.
These are some very quick and simple scarves I made under Miss B's supervision.
I bought a skein of woolly stuff from Spotlight. It came in a circle and was loosely tied flat. (hope that makes sense). I just sewed back and forth across the skein using a large straight stitch and a variety of colours. I tried to evenly space the sewn sections and left a bigger gap at the end where I cut across the skein to make the scarf.
I finished if off with a little brooch, again made using a button from spotlight and finished with a little knot of embroidery cotton.
Miss B. wears the blue one to school in the mornings and I wear the cream one. We have a rainbow skein upstairs waiting for a rainy day and for the sewing mood to come along.
I think we will be fighting for the coloured one.
Hope you are having a good weekend.
Awesome!! Seriously, really good! I can see I'm going to have to take a little trip to Spotlight you clever clogs.
ReplyDeleteWow, I've never heard of or seen a skein before, but those scarfs look fantastic! Well done!

ReplyDeleteThe scarves look really effective, how clever of you!
ReplyDeleteDeb, these look absolutely gorgeous!! I wish we had a Spotlight a bit closer...may have to make the drive to the big smoke (Tamworth...chuckle....) to get me a hank or two of wool! I absolutely love your scarves and the brooches too! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Thanks for sharing. ~ Tina xx
ReplyDeleteOoooh I love them! What a clever idea! I will have to go for a visit to Spotlight and stock up, I will have to make some in a few different colours of course! xx
ReplyDeleteYour scarves are brilliant!! I don't think I have ever seen scarves anything like them. So original and with a lot of style. Lovely!!! Susan :)
ReplyDeleteThey look great! I love the colour of the blue one :) Very clever!
ReplyDeleteYour scarves are great, I just love them!
ReplyDeleteWow, these are so cool!! Love the blue one. It looks like the kind of sewing that even i could manage - might have to pay Spotlight a visit!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting way to use wool. Ver unique. I personally love the cream one....that would look great with my Winter coat.
ReplyDeleteThey look fantastic! I like the white with the brooch, ooooh very nice.
ReplyDeleteYour wooly stuff scarves are so beautiful! I love them both but I'd probably fight over the rainbow one, too. Thank you for linking with Air Your Laundry Friday! - Jami
