Red Scarf Project 2007

The Irish Hiking Scarf Is A Popular One

Here is another version of the ever-popular, classic, and oh-so-wonderful Irish Hiking Scarf finished by Paula, whose blog name, PJBKnits, makes me think about dyslexic peanut butter and jelly, for some strange reason......

3 Scarves from Renee

Renee has finished three very pretty scarves.  Go take a look at them on her blog.  Please take a minute to tell her how beautiful they are, too. 

Red Andean Silk -- Yummmm.

Liz K. finished an Andean Silk scarf AND she will give away some of this lovely yarn to a lucky commenter.  There's only one catch.  Of course I highly approve of the catch.  So get yourself over to her blog and comment, win the yarn, and make another scarf for the project! 

Go on, DO IT! 

Kindness

Wooly Headed Ruth shows off some scarves that the Director of her child's preschool has knitted for the project. Aren't they wonderful?!

THREE!

Donna in Virginia has completed three scarves for the project.  Aren't they wonderful?  Donna explains that the colors are accurate except for the one on the right, which looks pink but is really a classic red.  Well done, Donna! 

Scarf, Meet Geometry

Wendy got out her Barbara Walker and made a scarf with a geometric design.  She is going to add a note with the scarf explaining the choice of design and how it is made.  Nice touch!  By the way, personal notes and small gift cards are encouraged to be included with your scarves.  It's not at all mandatory, of course, but would be a very nice gesture. 

Applying for Cash and Valuable Prizes

Ms. Smartypants Adelaide said she was entering the following scarf for valuable prizes.  And so she shall be!  (entered)

Thanks, Adelaide! 

Me, I just want cash.  I finished my multi-directional one.  It is really quite scrumptious with the naked eye.  I cannot seem to convince the digital camera, on this gray day with no model, of that fact, though.  Here's the best I could do:
The pattern is so much fun to do and not nearly as complicated as it looks.  I'm glad I tried it. 

GORGEOUS, LUSH -- GORGEOUS!

Two scarves from Beebs.

Gnomes Get Cold, Too

Hank D. Gnome models Paula's finished red scarf, the one she knit for me and gave me in Rhinebeck.  I just remembered I had not yet entered it in the gallery. It's a light, ethereal mohair scarf. 

I Never Get Tired of the Red Scarves -- Do You?

Lyssa finished a soft and lovely scarf the other night.  She's thinking of putting beaded fringe on it.  I can't wait to see it with the fringe!

Andrea made this pretty basketweave scarf.  Yum.  Great photo, too!

Also, bravo to the Quad City SnB'ers for all the scarves they are cranking out.  This is a completed one by Claire's (of the group) coworker. 

Alison has finished two scarves and will send photos soon, I hope.  Kate on Vancouver Island has finished one, as well. 

Thank you, everyone!  You knitters and crocheters are on FIRE!

This has been a busy and distracting week, so I wouldn't be surprised if I forgot to upload a photo or two.  If you notice that I have not put your scarf in, don't hesitate to email me at norma.knits@gmail.com.  When emailing about the scarves, almost everyone (maybe everyone) has  already done this and it makes it so much easier -- put "Red Scarf" in the subject line.  Thanks!
