First NTAFund.org ruffle scarf: finished!

The finished product! It's soft and shiny (but not ZOMGSHINEE), and quite warm.

Pardon the me in this pic. I don't have a...mannequin just-head thingy.

Not that these two came out all that bad, though. :)

I finished this awhile ago, but I'm staggering the posts to share the fun.

Apologies for my absence this month. It's been kind of crazy.

I know...pink really isn't my thing, but I'm making it, and will only be wearing it when I model it.

Soft and shiiiny. :)

Available here! :)

NTAFund.org Project is a go!

I figure I'd do more good with $50 worth of yarn (though I've spent less than that so far) than if I just made a $50 donation, so I asked the NTAFund people what colors I should use and they recommended the red, green and blue of their website. So I went out and bought yarn. I have two sets each of these:




And I have this medium shade of red:


...and it is red, though the flash makes it look orangey. I couldn't find blue and green in the same intensity so I'm off to the Caron website in the hope that they make the right colors in Simply Soft.

Time to get to work! I'll make both ruffled and flat scarves. Since they're for a good cause the ruffled scarves will be $30 and the flat ones will be $15.

I'm actually rather proud of this pic, and a few others with me in them that I'll be posting over the next several days. Apparently I'm not nearly as ugly as I usually think I am. ;)

Also, these are really, really fun to make. I just wish that I could buy the fun fur yarn in bulk because it's so pricey and you get so little of it! (compared to, say, a giant skein of boucle)
