OK, so I have stated before that I do not like the ruffle yarns.  However, the yarn companies keep coming out with different styles, I just have to try them!

I purchased some of the Sundance Frill brand found at herrschners.com.  I purchased the frill in Americana.  I have made two scarfs and have 2 skeins left.  I am debating between a pillow or a purse.

The first scarf is super easy.  Using the yarn just as it comes off the skein, make a slip knot around your first two fingers and thumb.  Make a chain stitch and continue to chain until the end of the yarn. The scarf came out a lot longer than what I expected.

I also made another scarf with a P (11mm) crochet hook.  I crocheted 10 plain chains then did 5 chains as a ribbon yarn.  I think I like this one better.
 I tried doing an all ribbon scarf but just can not seem to get it to look the way I would like it to look.

I have ordered the new color way of tie dyes in the Sundance Frill and will update soon with those colors.

Next weekend is the Pittsburgh Knit and Crochet Festival.  This is the first year I am going to be able to attend and I am so excited!  I am even taking a crochet class on Sunday morning!  So I may have another long hiatus before I blog again so I can crochet!!!
