Hi Suzetta,
I just found your website this morning and had to write. Your selections are lovely and I can't wait to get started on a scarf. The main reason I'm writing, however, is to let you know that I am Suzette! All the way from TN. I am so broke for Christmas this year that everybody is getting something crocheted whether they like it or not! I would like to make "free form" scarves, or even just 2-3" rows of various yarns and stitches for the length of the scarf. Any suggestion? I look forward to hearing from you. God bless, Suzette

The Super Bulky and Worsted Weight Scarf (see the side bar) lends itself to using a variety of yarns.
It is mostly knit.
The December Tear Drops scarf would also look nice worked with different yarns it is crocheted.

I don't go on the computer much these days but thought I'd take a peek. Saw the granny rectangle scarf and my mouth dropped. I had seen a picture of the same (similar) scarf with no instructions but knew that it was just a long granny rectangle which is easy enough to do and now the pattern I came up with is etched in my head forever. So far I have 25 scarves to send. They are fast, easy, and you can use up smaller skeins of yarn. I make 2 rounds of one color, two rounds of another color, one round of a third color and using that same color do a hdc around the edge. I have such a beautiful variety of colors and love them all. You can use even smaller amounts of yarn by changing colors each round. You'll use up a lot of that yarn just sitting there rolled up in a ball not knowing what to do with. Will send them in when I have other items finished so you get a big boxful.

I am working on this scarf & it doesn't seem to look like the one in the picture. It is curling up. Am I missing something? Should I be doing a single chain between the 3 dc in rows 2 & 3? Please let me know, trying to get this out for Christmas. Thank you for your response. Deb C
No chains between the dc groups. My guess is you are working too tighly, try moving up to a J hook and see if that helps you.
I'm in love!!! I'm going to use this pattern to make a blanket!!! I'm sooo excited !! Thank you so much for sharing this pattern!
