hexagon scarf
Quite a while ago I crocheted a Mamy bag. It turned out that I crocheted many more hexagons than I needed for the bag. The leftover hexes sat in a colourful pile for months and months and months, but when I was away with book group last year I sewed them together and turned them into a scarf.
It is quite difficult to photograph scarves effectively! I’m looking forward to wearing this one in winter – because as we know, I do like a bit of colour! And now the poor abandoned hexagons have become a useful accessory. Hopefully they’ll look better on me than on my chair.
Yesterday I had a lovely fabric shopping day out with some of my Sewjourn companions – there are accounts of the day over here and here! Extremely pleasant (and you’ll be impressed to discover that I was very mindful in my purchases). And my clever and talented crocheting/quilting/dressmaking friend blogless Megan is blogless no longer – check out her new blog Indigo Midge!
Lara, I love those hexagons- I really want to learn to crochet this year. You are so multitalented aren’t you. Yesterday looks like a very fun day. All you ‘wrap ups’/ photo mosaics of your projects are totally awe inspiring- do you secretly have a few extra hours in the day?
I just don’t get as much sleep as I should Tan!
It is hard to photograph a scarf. Even on a model, most times you end up cutting half of it out of the picture. Yours looks fun though!
Ooh, it’s lovely. Crocheted motifs are so versatile. The colours in your scarf are gorgeous.
