Scarves

My MIL asked me to make a couple of scarves for her best friend's birthday.  I was happy to have an excuse to crochet something fun and easy.
 
 

This was the first one.  I didn't realize the colors looked like rainbow sherbet, but it's cute.  This is the first time I have ever used 100% cotton yarn.  I really like it.  I just used the single stitch in the middle of the post to make the ribbing.

 
This on is almost the same.  Just regular Red Heart yarn in a beautiful color I just found called cornmeal.  This one is thick and very soft.



 And this one is my favorite.  I love it so much I am going to make one for myself ASAP.  Again I used a cotton yarn.  This one is Peaches and Cream from Walmart.  I will have to get myself a color that won't get so dirty but I love this one as it is.  It was just alternating rows of single and double crochet.  I was trying to make it more of a spring scarf.  It was still heavier than I expected but that my be because it was so long-I really love to wrap them twice--I hope MIL's friend does too! 







I will be making mine soon and will share it too.
