A gift....

I've started to crochet this scarf last Saturday during the quiet moments at the bazaar ( here )....
I didn't take any picture about the first steps of this project....
I started the foundation row (using a 5mm hook) with 100 loops/eyelets, as they are called in this video



I have some photos of the last round (I worked 6 rounds in total)...











Today I've completed the task (even trimmed in the ends!!)...








The scarf is 2m and 85cm long (!!!) and 15cm wide ! Love the vintage effect due to the colours selection.
Now I can tick one thing from my Christmas list : done!!!! ;oD

xxxx, Alessandra

Hey Ale, markets are good for catching up on crochet projects in between customers.....as long as it's not a tricky pattern you have to count!!

Someone is going to be nice and warm wearing that scarf through Winter. The colours are lovely and soft....
