Claudia Scarf

As the summer is ever so slowly winding down, I have really been enjoying sitting and crocheting in the evenings. I’ve been working on this scarf for a little bit and I love how it turned out. After Dawn had completed a couple of these gorgeous scarves, I knew I had to jump in and try some as well. This first one is for the kid’s swimming teacher. I have no idea what her personal tastes are as far as clothing as I only ever see her in a bathing suit and cap, but she has dark hair and I think it will go well with her complexion. It’s a pretty bold colour, so I hope that she likes it. Everybody could use one bright, bold scarf, right? I really loved this pattern, the repeats are super easy to remember which made it perfect for picking up and putting it down, a definite must with four kids and plenty more interruptions. I promise, I have been doing more than just crochet, but I wanted to show this to you all before I give it away. Hope everyone is doing well, don’t you just love the chill in the air?

    Love the colour of this scarf – I may have to make one for myself!
    Is it “doable” for a beginner??

  2. Everytime I see a post with lovely crochet, I think I must make more effort to improve my crochet skills! I love the colour of the scarf – I am sure the swimming teacher will be delighted with it!

    Gill, it is absolutely doable for a beginner. All you need to know is how to chain and do a double crochet (I believe treble in the UK). Go for it, it’s deceptively easy.
