A Scarf On A Jumbo Scale

Remember this JUMBO ball of wool that I got ages ago, well someone said they'd set straight to work and make a scarf from it, well when I saw it in the shop that's exactly what I thought.  I'd seen a pattern for a beautiful scarf in the same colour and knew I just had to make one so I set about learning how to master it and after a bit of faffing I figured it out

and here's the finished scarf

I just love the fish scale effect of the different leaves

I can't stop looking at it although it was made for my Mum as a Christmas present so

I set to work making another for myself in white and I'm sure there will be a veritable rainbow of scarves in this design to follow it was such an addictive pattern to make up.  I'm so addicted I may have to start selling them as I won't have room for many more!!!! (I have started selling them, check out my Etsy shop)

I've even adapted the pattern and made a shawl style one in pink

queue more staring

it's lovely, even if I do say so myself
