kerravonsenI have accomplished crochet!
Using the largest crochet hook I have (19mm) and chunky yarn, this scarf worked up pretty quickly. And it is fluffy and soft...
It's actually two kinds of yarn which happened to have the same colour schemes; the yarn at the edges is an odd mix of "bobble" yarn and eyelash yarn, while the yarn in the centre is "Chenille" yarn (very soft and furry).
I think I should go back to where I bought this yarn and see if they have any left in a different colour.
