here's what i was thinking:
i have the ladies circle needle work magazine from fall of 1978. it has this really neat scarf from scraps that i was thinking about making for myself. i want to make one similar, but because of all the different yarn choices we have today, it will be a bit different. basically, it goes like this...
you make this 40 row section of dc in black and then add rows of different stitches onto each end in your scrap yarn, throwing in black occasionally. because you add on both ends the same row as you go, it ends up being the same when folded in half.... making sense?
okay, i was thinking of just leaving my big fat black as the end and going from there - probably add a more decorative finishing row in a bright color... but not having the sides the same... just scrappy all the way through with different widths of the black bands...?
opinion?
same - scrap?:thinking2
