Makeover Monday: 8/28

 What??  It's not Monday??  Well, I'll be.  I must have lost a day somewhere.  I picked up this cotton yarn (I DO love it, by the way!) when I was in PA last week.  They have Hobby Lobby stores and we don't- and HL carries WAY more cotton yarn choices than Michael's or ACMoore around here.

I chose it for its soft and colorful qualities.  I found a pretty scarf pattern, and wanted to make my girl a non-scratchy scarf for the fall.  She is ultra sensitive about softness and comfort, and rainbow is still her favorite color.

This was such a quick and satisfying project!  I love the lacy look and Sophie loves how it feels.  Win~win!  The color is carousel ombre, and the free scarf pattern is courtesy of Red Heart.  It's called a side-to-side scarf and you can find it HERE.  I'm looking forward to having the time to make one for myself!

My Roving Eye

No, my husband doesn't need to be worried. I just can't seem to stop making these roving rufflettes! I have done a few in other types of yarn, but this is just my favorite to work with right now. It is so soft, works up very quickly, and has a really nice body to it. These are shorter than your average scarf, and they all have a functional vintage button sewn on to help keep them fashionably and warmly in place. These colors will be coming to sosorosey soon!
