I just gave it to her today (a few weeks late, sorry sis!) but I hadn't quite finished it last I saw her. I blame the hand stitching required to finish it up and leave the fabric loop open and have it sit nicer :)
Either way, now I can finally blog it!
I first saw this scarf on Made by Rae, and though, oooo pretty. She used Anna Maria Horner's blog tutorial found here to make her scarf, so I did the same! AMH uses a lovely voile and velveteen combo, and I did something similar, using those pretty fabric I've been meaning to make something with for a while (which I think could be called a voile, or close to it anyway), and some plain purple (yes it is purple, despite what my crappy quick shot above makes it look like) velveteen from the local chain fabric store.
The velveteen definitely makes it cozy, with the light voile keeping it light. But boy, that velveteen can stretch if you let it!
I love this scarf, and will definitely be making myself at least one, very, very soon!
