UPDATE :
It’s Done! Another Christmas gift off the To Do list! I finished it last night!
I don’t actually have anything finished to post today so I thought I would share a scarf I am working on for a Christmas present.
I bought this really cool, very thick yarn from the Michael’s store when Kim and I went on our day excursion. It was fairly inexpensive but the colours and the texture were enough that I decided to buy it. The colours are very vibrant and it is so thick that it will make someone a very warm scarf and a great gift!
This is the yarn!
And this is what I have done so far. I picked up the wool and my crochet hook last night and managed to work through one ball! Another good thing about working with such a thick yarn is that it works up quickly! I should have this scarf done by the end of the week and I will update this post when I finish it!
I am just working a double crochet, chain one, skip a stitch, double crochet pattern over 15 stitches because I figured a fancy pattern wouldn’t really show up with the yarn being so thick. I can dress it up at the end with some fringe!
I also bought this funky yarn, at the dollar store of all places, that I am also planning on crocheting into scarves for gifts. Hopefully it isn’t a pain in the you know what to work with lol!!!

I love the bright colours in those first two balls of yarn, they’re so cheerful!

I am still in the baby stages of learning to knit. My current knitting WIP is a baby blanket. Easy enough, right? Not so much. Changing colors is a pain in my BUTT!! I guess I’ll get the hang of it eventually.

There are a ton of “how to ” videos on utube. I know Kim has used them before. She only started to crochet late last year.
