I just can’t seem to stop

Making the twisted scarves has been a lot of fun.  They really are mindless and oh so easy; great for watching TV or riding in the car.  I’ve just finished a pink scarf and it has found a home with my physical therapist, Michelle.  She had fun playing with my black scarf one morning in PT and I decided to make one for her.  I used the eyelash, a cotton candy type fluffy yarn and a bamboo in a slightly darker shade.  The scarf is heavy like the black one but has such a different life to it.  I have to admit that I bought enough thread to make another black one for our groomer, Kathleen, who is always so wonderful in taking care of Molly and Sophie. I also bought red eyelash and red wool and will play with that combination.  I’m also going to try alternating the color on the rows and make a striped scarf.  I’ll try a sample swatch with the black and pick leftovers and see.  These are just like popcorn, I just can’t seem to stop!  The added benefit is they make people smile when they see them and equally so when they try one on.
