Almost two months ago, I stopped by a local craft fair and found some truly wonderful and creative items, from jewelry to greeting cards to soaps. One table in particular featured yarn, so of course, I was immediately drawn to it. I ended up purchasing gorgeous two scarf kits from preciousmettle. The scarfs were made up of several different types of yarn from complementary colorways. The cut of the different yarn types allowed for knitting two rows of each yarn color for a lengthwise knit scarf. While I was knitting the scarves, I ended up further customizing them by adding in a few more types of yarn from my stash. I was incredibly pleased with the result, as were the ultimate recipients! I definitely recommend folks check out the preciousmettle shop on Etsy to view her products.
Project details follow the pictures of the blocked scarves.
