Suggestions?

I have some TLC Essentials Dark Plum yarn left over from a Christmas present.

Yesterday I purchased some Sensations Cello yarn (same plum color) and some Bernat Soft Boucle yarn (mixture including the plum).

This yarn is definitely for ME! ! I want a scarf for myself out of this yarn. And somewhere ( :oops I did NOT mark the link - darnit! :oops ) there is an example of a wonderful free-formish scarf that utilizes different textures of yarns. It's not your average every day scarf.

Does anyone know what I am talking about? I think I saw it linked from here. But for the life of me... I cannot find it. :shrug

Help?

:bad I don't think that color will be good for you at all!!! I think you should send me all of that purple (plum) yarn before you make a big mistake!!!!:bad That is gonna be a beautiful scarf when you find your pattern and make it. Hope you find your pattern soon can't wait to see it finished! :frog

I don't know if it is available on the web anywhere but there is a pattern in this book called the Fern Forest Scarf that uses several different types of yarns. It's very pretty.

Freebies: Labrador + Fizz Scarf or Moebius Scarf

i'm probably going to be no help at all.....

do you remember any part of the name?

what about how it looked ---- i surf patterns and sites at night when i can't sleep..... maybe i've crossed it.

or maybe.... what are you wanting... perhaps you can design your own, just needing a little help???

:ideanot

OH OH OH!!! i think i know what you are talking about.....

was it done in greens???? olives and such????

i think it was called "homage scarf" something like that?!?

Deb · February 1, 2005

I thought I saw the scarf on Gina Renay's site... but I surfed there for awhile with no luck at all.

hmm... :thinking1

I'm gonna Google that homage scarf thing... :google see what I find. :sherlock

Thanks Rebecca! :)h

RebeccaVelasquez · February 2, 2005

deb, wasn't sure if "nope" was not find the homage scarf... or not finding what you were looking for.

Hi Guys,

One of my students started making a cowl neck hooded scarf with this yarn.

Brought it into class for me to see. With out seeing the pattern, I could tell the yarn would of been too heavy for what she wanted to make.(plus, she wasn't following the pattern anyway....way too big).

After some manuvering(don't ask!!), I got the pattern (from Ebay), realized she needed to use some type of sport yarn.
