For the last week, I've been working on a scarf for my niece, Riley. Next month, she's turning ten and she's a BIG Hannah Montana fan. So, while I had another ball of tri-coloured yarn left over from Winter, I thought I'd get into a third scarf. As you can see, it's Moss Stitch again and it's going well. I'm hoping to have hot pink, long tassels hanging off the ends so she can throw it over her shoulder next winter and be in fashion; matching the colours of her idol.
And what lovely colours they are for a young lady to grow into! And she need not just use the scarf as a Hannah Montana scarf. Once she's grown out of Hannah Montana, this scarf can be used to just throw on to keep the brief winter chills that visit us here in Australia.
19th, September, 2009 - I finished this gorgeous scarf last night; adding the last touches of the tassels. And it's absolutely gorgeous too! Just look at
the sparkle they add. I had to hunt around for that particular pink which would have any 10-year-old feeling as glamorous as Hannah Montana herself! I really do hope my niece does like this one.If you'd like the pattern for this scarf, it's on Ravelry.com. The link to the site is on the sidebar. Anyway, until my next project - whatever it may be - keep knitting and keep creating.
Creative! :) No one in my family knits, so I was never given a home-made scarf for my birthday... when I was 10 I would be jealous of my friends getting presents like this. Some of them didn't appreciate it, when I was like "Someone took hours out of their life to make you a scarf! Lucky!" But then again I've always been highly sentimental, so that might've added to it. ;)
ReplyDeleteShe'd better like it! Are the tassels sparkly? Can't tell in the pictures. :) It's a lovely scarf, either way! ^_^

If you click on the pictures, you can have a very up-close-and-personal view of tassels and the scarf... mine, they're not focus for some reason when it's that up close!
ReplyDeleteHey that's a great idea! My God daughter is also a big Hannah Montana fan, she's eleven. Think it might be a nice Xmas present for her.
ReplyDeleteBTW Happy birthday! Sandramaria on Ravelry
Sandra, you can find the pattern for it that I made up on my projects page on Ravelry.com. I gave it to her today; and Riley loves it! She put it on straight away and didn't want to take it off!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the birthday wishes too! :D
