Twisty Scarf

Handmade by
Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, AL
I found a pattern at Hobby Lobby hanging in front of this thread.... I thought this is just beautiful I must make one... As you know, if you know me much at all ... I hate reading and following patterns... most all of my work is something I get in my head...often from things I see.  It is kind of like my aunt who plays the piano beautifully but can't read a lick of music.  It is a different talent is how I like to think of it.  Anyway I read the pattern to see if I could follow it... and got the concept of what made this work...I went to work on the concept instead of following the pattern... So even tho this is not mine...it is kind of mine.  Thank you for looking...I hope you like!!  Hugs, Jeannie

Seafoam and Lace

Handmade Design by
Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, AL
I was so excited to make this...I had some leftover yarns and I loved the look of the tri shawl that I made. The mixture of knitting with crochet really makes me happy... I like the look that you can accomplish combining the two techniques...now to learn how to take it to the next level.  Fiber Art is so much fun... the possibilities are limitless... just wish I had started 20 years sooner there is so much to learn.  Thank you for looking!! Hugs, Jeannie
There is some crochet in green and then in the off white color. I can't wait to explore new stitch combinations.
