remember this scarf that I started for a dear client ?
well, I finished it last week and it is already shipped
but I had great fun making the scarf and taking pictures of it
so here is to share : the scarf
inspired by this scarf I custom made a design in different colors and different yarn
this yarn is Catania 100% cotton, the same yarn I use to make the baby blankets
when knitted it is very soft and gentle around your neck
the colored stripes in between the large blue and grey blocks, are choosen by my client to match her coat
excellent choice if you ask me
after I finished the knitted rows I added crochet borders to give the edge a more firm look
and then I was looking for the finishing touch
a scallop edging like I did here did not seem to do the trick this time
and then I got it : mini crochet pompoms !
after I finished those I decided I had to make at least one more scarf with pompoms, for myself haha
don't they look like cute mini lights that lighten up your outfit ?

yesterday I told you about the cousins that are about to be born
and will be lying under creJJtion blankets soon
well, the boy blanket will be striped in the same beautiful colors as this scarf
I am so honored my sweet friend would love to have her boy sleeping under one of my blankets !

back to the scarf
I love this scarf, truly and honestly
with jeans, on a bright white t-shirt, or fashionably with your red skinny jeans... suitable for every occasion
what do you think ? would you like to see the pattern in my shop ?
What a lovely scarf! I saw a pin on Pinterest of your blanket and it brought me here.
