I crocheted this cowl scarf after much frustration trying to knit one on a circular needle... I tried to follow a pattern, but it was just NOT turning out right and was taking FOREVER. I actually started out as a knitter, doing simple things and I loved it, but once I tried crochet and realized I could do bigger stuff way faster, I was "hooked" (hahaha).
It looks really cute on [a human], but I didn't feel like taking pictures of myself this morning, so my dog, Tink had to suffice.
For the cherry blossoms, I cut out 5-petaled flowers from cream colored felt. I stitched and beaded the centers with salmon emroidery floss and salmon seed beads. Then I used the same floss and attached each flower to the scarf with a running stich. Voila!

I cannot crochet. To save my life, I couldn't crochet a chain. This rocks! You're super duper talented!
Oh my gosh that is so pretty. I love the colors and flowers. Tink looks great in it. I am trying to learn how to crochet but dyslexic and left handed is a funny combination. I am slowly learning. :)
I am one of the Craftster girls. I love your ATC's so I just had to read your blog. I love it. I am LylacFey on the board.
Coowl. Can't wait to see you so I can wear it! :)
decades from now, i picture myself sitting on a rocking chair with a ball of yarn and a knitting needle. but how? i do not even know how to knit. it's too late to learn. my fingers are stiff already.
you have nice work, as always.
Kiwi, Tink looks lovely in it. I miss her so much. She makes a good model for your wearable arts.
