Josette

As you all know by now, I love to make feminine items for ladies. If I design a scarf, it has to have an element of loveliness to it, even if the rest of it has simple lines and easy stitches. Josette has a bit of lace at the edges to lend it that element of feminine beauty that makes you feel pretty even if you're wearing it with an old pair of sweat pants and a drab jacket to run a quick errand! It is also very easy, suitable for gift-giving and ideal for charity projects. The scarf was designed in a rich burgundy, a hue that will add a bit of vivid color to any gray, brown, black of navy coat or jacket you might want to wear it with. Enjoy!

Anaelle

Anaelle is a very quick and easy short scarflet. It is short enough to make in one sitting, if you are a fast crocheter, so it is ideal for gift-giving and charity projects. It takes up very little yarn, so you can make several from a new skein. It was designed for Orchid, a lovely hue of purple by Red Heart yarns which I think is very flattering to any complexion because of its rosy undertones. It is enough of a scarf to provide warmth but not so long that it will get caught in everything as you pass. I loved this one because you make it one piece, no sewing required. Enjoy!

Dannette

I have run many times into advanced beginners who commented sadly that most of the patterns they find are above their skill level, and there are very few things that they can make. Dannette is a pretty scarflet which an advanced beginner who has learned to follow instructions in crochet language, can make and an intermediate to advanced crocheter will make almost with their eyes closed. It is a great project for charity and for gift-giving as well. It is a lovely keyhole scarflet that will stay comfortably put even in a high wind. Enjoy!

Jantinne

Jantinne is a Dutch name that means "God is Gracious," I think it is a beautiful name, and the meaning is even more beautiful and totally true! Jantinne is longer than most scarves I have designed but it is lovely and super easy to make. This is another ideal project for charity or gift-giving, especially if you're in a pinch.

Lellia

My designing process is usually very organic. When I started Lellia, i really didn't know where I was going with it, until the lace began to form before my eyes and I loved it. The lace is very easy to make and yet it is effective in creating a lovely scarf and that is what I always aim at.
