In the package were three yarns, a booklet with the three patterns in both crochet and knit (Hmm... make that 6 patterns then, right? LOL) and the "free gift" stitch guide.
Let's look at this stitch guide... Okay... it's more a hmmm... an over-simplified beginner's guide - and frankly, in this girl's humble opinion, unworthy of the title "free gift." UGH... Okay, I agree it is needed by many, BUT I would include that without hype and I would have preferred my "free gift" to be something along the lines of a tote, or hook/needle holder?? ANYTHING other than what they give. They lose points with me for that.
Now Let's take a look at the yarn it came with:
Bright Pink Chenille (BulkyWt/Size6) |
Multi-Colored Ladder (Worsted/Size4) |
Bright Pink... WoW - Kinda hurts my eyes LOL But I'm a nature girl and generally shy away from bright colors like this. But it is for an "Infinity" Scarf that is just a huge circle.
Soft White (Fine-SportWt/Size1) |
This is nice and soft - Baby Yarn. Should make a nice Ruffled Scarf.
Okay, for now - I'm finished ogling the goods LOL
I'll post pictures of the finished scarves when I get them done. In the meantime... I anxiously await the arrival of the NEXT kit. I'll post details when it gets here!!
I like the chenille yarn, but I am in agrrement about the color, something a little less flashy for me, please.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing how these turn out.
Hi Helen!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the chenille - it is very yummy but... yes, TOO flashy LOL
Please feel free to follow me and share the blog with anyone else you might think would be interested. I do plan on keeping up with it; If for nothing more than my own amusement LOL
Enjoy & Welcome!
I shall do that. I have a blog as well, but don't have anything much posted. I'm hoping to get more crochet related things added in the next couple of weeks.
