Welcome to another #NeedleworkMonday friends! With the Fall season approaching I have been buying supplies and preparing to make hats, scarves and fingerless gloves. My family has already given me their wishlist and some of my customers are starting to place their orders.
Every year before Summer ends, I make the time to crochet myself a new infinity scarf before I get busy with orders. Two reasons I learned to crochet is to save money and to make the designs that I love. If I do not set the time aside I will not be able to do either one of those.
This is a broomstick lace infinity scarf. It looks more complicated than it really was to crochet. At the beginning I was getting nervous because it wasn’t looking so neat . I learned that as you move along you will be able to shape it and make it neat by gently spreading and stretching out the stitches. By the third row I was relieved that I wouldn’t have to start over because my stitches started to look neater and actually look like broomstick lace. 😅 Any of you ever start a new pattern and knew right off there would be lots of restarts or just coming back to the pattern later after cooling down from your frustrations? 🙋🏽 Well I’m happy to say I continued on and didn’t give up even when it was looking like a hot mess lol. I am currently working on my second one and even the first row looks like broomstick lace!!! 💁🏽
Brittney at b.hooked crochet does a wonderful tutorial on this scarf. You can find the video tutorial and written pattern Here! You will need a size US 50 knitting needle if you prefer not to use an actual broomstick. This a really nice lightweight scarf for beginning of the Fall season. The pattern calls for Redheart Boutique Unforgettable yarn.
One of the styles I love for Fall is layering. I love that you can stay warm by layering your clothing instead of being covered in a jacket. I paired my scarf with my crochet satin lined slouchy, an Old Navy long sleeve striped shirt, an Old Navy sweater, a Day Trip vest, Calvin Klein skinny’s and Not Rated boots.
I hope you enjoyed viewing my crochet fashion post today! Stay tuned there’s more to come!
