Beatrice Scarf

Well, here is my version of Robin Chachula's 'Beatrice Scarf' from Interweave Crochet Accessories. Ignore those fancy 'no wrinkle' sheets - yikes! I love the way this scarf turned out. The pattern called for a simple single crochet border along the two ending edges, but I picoted them, and I think it looks nicer, more dressy, like this. I am going to use this scarf to throw over simple tops, like tee-shirts, and dress them up. I think it will make a big difference. I bought three skeins of Vanna's Glamour to make this, and it only used one. So I have two left to make something else. Isn't that nice? This yarn is beautiful. It's $4.99 at Hobby Lobby if it's not on sale (and I don't remember if it was or not....) so the scarf cast me less than five bucks. You can't beat that at Wal-mart, certainly not anywhere else, for something so pretty. I'm loving this.

Y'all have a great day. Happy hooking!
