Crochet Scarf 12 FOR 12

So I actually did do wood in January but forgot all about posting it, so that will come and then I almost forgot all about posting this one and just making it in on time, right?

I want to work with 12 materials in 12 months and that doesn't mean I have to just do one, for one month, if I wanted to do 2 or 3 then I can but to knock them all off within the 12 months.  

I really have always wanted to learn to corchet but always put it in the too hard basket without even trying.  I started looking at you tube and a few online tutorials and thought it was time to give it a go and so I did and I went in with the frame of mind to try doing a few times knowing I would make mistakes then when I got the hang of it pull it all apart and start for real.  

Being the above is done with instagram it's not overly true to colour, it's more a mustard yellow, I have a cardigan in the same colour and I love it and others always comment how it suits my hair colour.

The weekend the girls started school I hired 2 dvds and 1 season and I was determind to get it finished and I was surprised by the second movie I was done.

I made it so that I can wrap it around twice.  I love the colour and I love the pattern and I love that I taught myself all from this HERE  This girl is amazing, I watched a few online youtube videos and by this one was the easiest to follow and understand and detailed.  I have already started making another one and this one I plan on making it smaller but longer in the neck and another one for a friend.

So I guess if there was one thing I wanted to try and get across in this post, is that, never think anything is to hard, be sure to try first, I am so glad I did.

I loved seeing this on IG. You did such a great job. Yours came out just like hers.I have also used this same you tube video. Mine are pretty but mine look like I used a different stitch, and I am an experienced crocheter (?). If you want to learn more stitches/patterns try this you tube user Meladora1. I think her instructions are very clear and easy to follow. She even does slow motion!
