Yarning for Winter

The hubby endorses that fact that I have taken up crochet.  It's a fun way to keep my hands busy and a great way to spend time waiting for kids at their various and sundry activities.

So far, I haven't produced a lot, but I've sure enjoyed learning.  I'm blessed to have a good friend with yarning skills and lots of patience to help me out.

So, long story longer, the hubby bought me two skeins of yarn in gold and black and a couple crochet needles for Mother's Day.  Why gold and black you ask?  Because they are his alma mater's school colors of course, and he wanted a scarf for football season.

Since I love making things for him, this was the perfect gift.  With some advice from said friend, I embarked on a somewhat creative pattern.  With his input, here is the scarf (complete with white stripe the hubby requested to make sure all colors are represented) and a hat to accompany it.  I'm pretty happy with them if I do say so myself.  He is too, and that's all that matters.  Yay for accomplishing something, even it if is winter attire in the dead of summer! 

Do you yarn?

Reno Rose Pirose Review

http://www.renorose.com/

Cost:  $35.00

I love scarves and purses and shoes… Scarves are especially nice because they are so versatile and add such a pleasant accent to an outfit when worn as a belt, hair band, purse tie, or shoulder wrap.


The Reno Rose Pirose is an especially appealing scarf because of its design. The scarf is oblong-shaped with a hole offset from the middle allowing the scarf to be worn one of ten ways. How exciting to have one accessory with ten different applications!

I was picked to receive the medium Gwendolyn scarf. It comes with its own carrying pouch and directions for the ten different styles.

I immediately wished it were summer and I could wear it out. My daughter was home for the weekend and had her hair braided, so she became my model. Doesn't she look beautiful?

Here’s a video of the versatility in action:



If you’re looking for a way to spruce up your wardrobe, check out Reno Rose. I think you’ll find this multi-faceted scarf well worth the investment.
