GrannySquareScarf

 

I designed a new project and bought some Novita Elegia yarn (62% cotton, 35% acrylic, 3% polyamide) (150g = 443m) for it.

I crocheted GrannySquares of it and attached them to each other in a line. 

I finished the outside edges by Wetterhoff's Sivilla yarn (30% silk, 70% wool) (50g = 250m).

Sivilla is loose end yarn from my Knitted collar project. 

I love how the shades variage in the scarf because of the Elegia yarn. 

The scarf is a gift for the Christmas 2020.

Knitted collar

Some time ago I knit a collar for myself. It's rare I do something for myself. I think that's the problem of all craft makers. They always do something for the others. I never found the picture I took months ago but I made some new ones

I designed this collar to be knit from Wetterhoff's Sivilla yarn. It consists of 30% silk and 70% wool, it includes Aloe vera, Jojoba oil and vitamin E. It is for my own use. I need it at wintertime when riding. Scarf is a bit dangerous and difficult with horses. Wearing face cover winter mask is a bit tricky if you have glasses and it's not -20 Celcius degrees yet. Warmer weathers make your glasses steamed and that's not fun. :) The collar has front and back cover to protect the chest and upper back area. It has buttonts by the neck area and the collar itself is like folded turtleneck from polo shirts. I decorated the collar with some crochet.

Seventh day of December

If you need a gift idea for a craft friend, why not to buy some luxurous yarn. You know, it's difficult to buy special yarns for yourself. You consider them too fancy, too expencive -too everything. But if you give some for your friend it feels ok. So why not swap luxurous yarns by the Xmas! You know how wonderful it is to have such a gift! This yarn is Wetterhoff's Sivilla yarn. It consists of 30% silk and 70% wool, it includes Aloe vera, Jojoba oil and vitamin E.
