The Creative Side of So

The craft meet up that I attend once a month had organized a visit to Chickpet on Ramzan day - main reason being to pick up some Macrame yarn. The visit was very fruitful and I ended up buying some good yarn and some crochet threads - I'll have to find something to do with it - maybe ill make a colorful tatted dress for my baby or something (in case its a girl - else ill have to find something else to do with it). I was overwhelmed by the amount of craft items we find there. I felt like buying anything and everything.  Oh, I forgot to say - I bought some large wooden beads to make my purse handle with. It was tough to find beads in that size. We had to look high and low. Since many of the stores sell in wholesale amounts there, its tough to get a small count of beads. Smaller ones are readily available. I just hope the purse turns out beautiful and its all worth the hunt. - So

I follow Judy on Facebook. Her page is called "Knitting Tips by Judy". She had recently put up a video on Lacey Edge Scarf with bulky yarn and I had absolutely loved it. Was wanting to try it and was wondering when I should go to buy some bulky yarn, when she put up the same pattern with thin yarn too. It looked absolutely beautiful. A few days back I had visited Chickpet and had bought some beautiful eyelash yarn from Ramdev Stores. Heres a pic. When I saw the second video by Judy, I suddenly remembered this yarn. I thought of making this scarf for my sister who is also currently carrying. She is ahead of me by 1.5 months. Since she wears scarves, I thought it would be a good memoir from me to her. I hope she will like it when its done. Although the pattern is not clearly visible on the photo, the scarf is turning out beautiful.  Will put up finished pics when done. Stay tuned !! - So. UPDATE: Here are the finished photos...
