Several customers and followers of this blog suggested that I make hat and scarf sets. I had acquired some beautiful oversized skeins of two Noro yarns. Perfect for projects that require more yarn. To the maker, that means less joining of yarn ends!
“Noro Uchiwa” blends colours and makes up soft and tweed-like. It has fibres of cotton, viscose, and silk. I experimented with different scarf patterns and used vintage buttons to finish off the necklines.
“Noro Tsubame” proved to be one of my favourite yarns. I crocheted a slouch beanie using the brickwork stitch and loved the way the silk and wool blend yarn seemed to naturally stripe. As well, I completed a one-skein scarf project. I left the scarf unblocked, giving it a wabi sabi, less is more, woven aesthetic.
