Hi friends so its already august summer fly so fast  and I know I've been lacking on posting stuff here.....sowrry ;)

since summer is coming to an end... I've started on doing warmer stuff like hats and scarfs most of them are simple scarf but with cool effect like this one





here I just work in SC in back loop and the self stripping yarn did the rest


and that one




again SC except this yarn had little "pompom" I just placed them to create stripe on both side


so one day I decided to do a stripe scarf

so I began





......and then I had too much coffee lol

so you'll need 2 color of worsted weight yarn I used "favorite" from ice yan
4 mm hook
yarn needle
scissor
colors will be revered as color A and color B
at every color change join new color in last st

Start with A
