Bernat Chunky Scarf

[jillybean]

I have a confession to make. I've been knitting and crocheting for 35 years and have never, NEVER, made a scarf until yesterday. I'd start, but none could keep my attention until I found the perfect combination of yarn and pattern.

 

Now I'm really frugal, I tend to use what I have before I buy anything, but I couldn't pass up a good sale on the softest prettiest yarn, Bernat Chunky in the varigated colour "Southwest", especially as I needed something for my sister's Christmas present. And that led me to the Bernat website and their free pattern,http://tinyurl.com/BernatScarf.

 

 

 

Mittens are next in Bernat Softee Chunky, solid teal to match the bright teal in the scarf.

This is a beautiful scarf. I've been on a scarf kick lately for Christmas gifts. Thanks for sharing the link to the pattern!

GORGEOUS

 

That is incredible it took you 35 to finally make a scarf. That was the very first thing I crocheted was a scarf.

Thanks all...it is funny it took me so long, my first crochet project was a 18" diameter doily that my mom still uses. This scarf whipped up in such a short time though that I found myself taking inventory of the yarn I had tucked away to see if I have anything that would suit me! lol

Great scarf and thank you for the pattern. I will be using it soon.

Your scarf came out beautiful. I have the Bernat chunky yarn in variegated blues. Would love to make this scarf. Only 1 question - How do you get the other end to look like the beginning? So they look the same when wrapped around neck?

I love it, esp. the colors.

The scarf is beautiful -- love the colors! I find it so funny that it took you this long to make a scarf ... I started crocheting just a few months ago and have completed nothing but a bunch of scarves so far!

 

I'm currently working on my first non-scarf project, a baby afghan made with Bernat Softee Chunky in Taupe Twist, with the edging done in solid Taupe (which actually looks a lot more like a light cocoa).

Very nice scarf!

What a lucky lady. It's such a great combo of the pattern & yarn. I think I'll mark this one for next year - and I think I have the perfect yarn in my stash. TFS

That's come up beautifully, really shows off both the colours AND the pattern
