Beaded and Ruffled Scarves

[vhanna26]

Here's a beaded scarf I finished hast night. The pattern is from the latest issue of Simply Creative Crochet and designed by Lily Chin.

 

I used two and a half skeins of LB Chenille and over 600 pony beads. It was very easy to make, and my first beaded project. If you are curious about using beads, this is a great starter project.

 

 

I also made a ruffled scarf. I used one skein of Woolease in Winter white.

Where did you find the magazine or book? I can't find any crochet magazines right now. I tried to work with beads this morning and it didnt look right.

 

 

I love yours.

[Woven N Spun]

Did you say crochet magazine? Is there such an animal?

That beaded scarf is gorgeous!! Beautiful job!

Wow!! Great job on that beaded one, my mom's been wanting to try that pattern, I think I may have to get the beads and yarn for her and let her borrow my mag. Or I might just make it for her. Hmmm...I wonder if you could use a really big hook and laceweight yarn, a seed bead of some sort, if you could make more of a shawl using that pattern??? Anyone have an opinion???

Love the ruffled scarf. I've been thinking about trying the Lily Chin pattern, but without the beads.

[YaYa Yarnhood]

Wow, they are both very beautiful.

[sugalily]

Those are very cute and girlie!!

I don't know how thick/thin is the laceweight yarn, Rebecca but if you can string pony beads or size 8, 6 into that then it's ok....Looks like the fringe is chained beads. My only suggestion is when you add beads into the chain, it should be snug. I hope this helps.....

Gorgeous Vera!!

[vhanna26]

Thanks for all of the compliements on the scarves:) .

 

I've already have the yarn and beads to try another Lily Chin scarf. This one is called Retro, and it's from the book Scarf Style (which has mostly knitted, but several crocheted scarves, and Retro is one of the crocheted). I think it's very neat and classy.

 

I can't find a photo of it on the web just yet, but I'll post my pictures as soon as I'm done.
