I don’t know what it is about Christmas time. But it always seems that I want to get out the yarn and a crochet hook and crochet a scarf or a shawl. It’s so nice to just relax with my crochet hook and stitch away.
This year I made a really cute little scarf that stitched up in no time at all. It is from a free pattern by The Crochet Crowd called Scarf 2 Ways. But I think I will call mine “A Scarf With a Twist” because at the end it kind of curls and twists around itself.
I had some Willow Wool Saffron yarn that I bought when it was on sale a while back. I think it looks just perfect with it.
This little scarf stitches up in no time. It looks a little awkward just lying out flat because of the curved ends. But those curves are what give the beautiful twist .
I had to adjust the pattern just a bit because my yarn was a lighter weight and my needle was smaller. I chained until the chain went almost around my neck but not quite. Then I followed the pattern as it was written.
I did change the edging as well. I like a little bit of a lace edge on my scarves
I finished this one in an evening. So… Of course I want to make several more with these colors.
I’m excited to wind my cakes of yarn and start stitching again! I will show them all together when I get done. Maybe before Christmas?….
I’m so glad you stopped by today. I hope you are enjoying the holiday season and finding a bit of SWEET creative time as well!
Until next time–
It's a T-Sweets day! 
What lovely colours you’ve chosen! Down Under Christmas is definitely not a good time for cosy scarves, but I can well believe that a northern hemisphere winter would make a good selection very welcome.

Thank you Kate! Yes, even here in Arizona we have been having a cool winter. I’m sure Christmas Down Under is filled with shorts and Barbecue:). Sounds good to me!!

Lovely scarf. Now I want to take a refresher in crocheting. I have difficulty following crochet directions. I used to take whatever I was making to my mother. She would show me the steps, then I could continue.

Hi Chela! This one is pretty easy, but you should probably have someone help you if you haven’t crocheted in a while. I hope you take out the hook and give it a try. This one is so cute!!❤️❤️
