My Favorite Things Scarf (Part #1)

Hello, and welcome back to Crafting with Steph!!! :)

Yes, I know, I know, I haven't posted on here in a while, and I'm sorry. I've just been very busy lately...*sigh* :(

Well, I'm going to try to make it up to you- I have an awesome new pattern to share. I stumbled upon it yesterday, and boy, is is AMAZING

I found it on Ravelry (right here, actually: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/my-favourite-things-infinity-scarf

It's amazing, because, well, this scarf is made to be personalized with your favorite things. Ever since finding it, I have been scouring the web for patterns and charts.

This pattern calls for the scarf to be knit as a tube, in the round. I tried it this way, but with all the complex patterns...well, I got annoyed over the gap that was messing them up. (You know, the gap you get when knitting in the round). I hated that one side looked elevated, so I started over, knitting the scarf flat (I'll sew it together when I'm done). 

To get the main instructions for this patter, click the link provided above.

Here is how my scarf is coming along:



This pattern is so colorful and fun (time to pull out my colorful yarn stash :D)


I've been using patterns she provided, and also finding my own:




I have decided to keep a pattern journal, for future reference (cause I ALWAYS lose loose-leaf paper):


I'll be sure to share more on this project as I go along, plus more patterns :)
