Cream squishy-ness

I just had to make another infinity scarf, since I love the first one so much.  This time I used a less dense yarn, so it took the entire two skeins (94 yards each) for this scarf.  It ended up at around 22″ wide.  In making these two different ones, it seems that the thickness of the yarn will determine how much you will need for your desired length.

This was Woolike Chunky in Beige.

This took me about 3 movies (or around 6 hours) to knit it on my loom.  It is pretty easy and mindless to do this in front of the tv.  There is no counting stitches or anything.  You just weave it on the loom and use your little tool.

Next up is the leather application.  I didn’t have quite enough to cut two pieces on the fold.  Instead out of the two different colors, I cut 4 pieces 2.5″ wide by 12.5″ long.  This was a thicker leather, so I didn’t interface them.

I wasn’t sure what color snaps to use for the bone color of the yarn.  I decided to go with just a silver colored snap.  I think the reason that Tandy’s snaps are so hard to use is that they are steel. Yeah.  A little hard to pound them down.  I will take a cheaper metal over the durability of the steel.

Then, I had the perfect fabric color to make a top to match!  I will have a review on this pattern next week in the pattern tour for the Slouchy Sweatshirt by Nap Time Creations.
