Crochet the Night Away!

3 Scarves :)
Lately, I've been doing a ton of new scarves, and putting them up for sale at my mother-in-law's restaurant here in town. I'm addicted to this riot eyelash yarn, haute fur, and shimmery-shiny-glittery yarn.. as you can see from my 3 latest additions.
On the left, yarn from Hobby Lobby, Haute Fur in Marine Sky
I crocheted this scarf as follows:
Chain 13, DC in 4th ch from hk. Ch 1 & skp next ch. DC in next ch, and repeat to end. Ch 4 and turn
Next row, DC in 1st ch, ch 1, skp next ch, DC in next ch., repeat to end. ch 4 and turn
repeat this until desired length.
Since it's furry, it's really hard to see the pattern anyways, so the pattern is really not important. I added fringe.

The 2nd scarf is my absolute Favorite right now!
I started the first one like this at Christmas time, just throwing together a few yarns I had in my bag, and it turned out gorgeous.
This one is made with
 Hobby Lobby "I Love This Yarn".. Ivory I believe.
 Hobby Lobby "I Love This Yarn".. ivory with gold shimmer
and Riot Eyelash in Champagne, from.. you guessed it... Hobby Lobby :)
I basically did the same thing with this scarf as the previous.. except instead of using DC, I used HDC. It's SOOO warm and fuzzy and soft. I LOOOOVE it. The first one I made sold like a hotcake at the restaurant when I no more walked in the door with it. It didn't even set on the shelf for but a minute and it was swiped up and bought!

The 3rd scarf:
I purchased the yarn from JoAnn Fabrics at holiday time, and it's called Holiday Shimmer.
I'll share the pattern for this one in a separate post, since it's a little more complicated.

Hope you like!
