Stores this year have been promoting Christmas in July. Strange you might say? Not really.
It takes quite a deal of time to make gifts for people and you can't procrastinate...so the earlier you start, the better it is for you.
A few years ago, 2008, I had decided to knit scarves for a handful of close friends and family.
So off I went to Walmart to pick up a variety of colours of yarn...
This green one was for my niece Michelle. She chose green as her latest favourite colour.
So I put together this cute little green one with it's twists and tassled ends.
This purple one was for one of my best friends, Melanie.
During this time she was leaning towards the colour purple, so a purple butterfly pattered scarf it was for her.
This simple brown scarf was for one of the guys, who wasn't into any frill. Quite suitable for anyone! One of the easiest to make.
I had a great time making different scarves for different people. I think for that year, I made almost a dozen scarves. Each took me about a half a month to make depending on the complexity of the pattern and design...along with how many mistakes I made along the way because I lost count...lol
Probably in a few more years, I'll come up with something else to make for a select few :)
