I made the scarf again (or “The Scarf”, as I think of it now), this time in tomato with a slate gray edge.
I would never have thought to order the tomato if it hadn’t been for Kathryn. (But I think we’d pronounce it differently, ya?) It’s pretty close to the brick red, but it’s got a nice juicy sharpness to it.
And guess what, the lovely lady in Wichita made one as well. Tamara chose blue and grey, and I think it looks stunning (and not least because she’s a damn fine crocheter!!!) She’s going to send some feedback on the pattern soon, and I know with her help the scarf kit is going to be a winner. Without her help, I think the pattern may as well have been written in Croatian for all the use it would have been to anyone. Except a Croatian, of course.
Back soon x
Nice piece of work 
Both scarves look absolutely fabulous!
thanks. How’s the poncho?
It’s going well, am I overdue for another update?
the kind of thing you’re doing with the poncho is my real true love – mixing different yarns and textures together so you get a bit of a surprise at the end!
I’ll try to get a good foto of it up on sunday.
Oh my gosh Jill! I thought you would at least crop my face out of that one picture. LOL :-)
you did? why? you look so serene and happy, like “At last I can put this bloody scarf behind me”, or “John will be so thrilled with the extra jalapenos I put in the chili for supper….”
Tamara! No way!! This is your purr-ecious little-girl face. And I LOVE it!!! :-) ~~ Kat
The scarf is a triumph! Hi Tamara from another member of the Jam Tarts pattern testers. :)
hehe :-)
:-) they are both very pretty! love the tomato/grey one and the blue/grey one too! :-)
Both colour combinations work really well. Lovely.
Thank you :-)
Love it in tomato!
Tomato is my latest colour of LOVE !!!
Such pretty scarves and good colours. Very nice to see a pic of the gorgeous Tamara.
Thanks Gail :-)
I like the look of that tomato.
you would, with your new interest in gardening :-)
We currently have lots of tomatoes in our garden…
I think the tomato scarf would be just the thing to wear as summer fades here in the UK as I collect them each morning!
Gorgeous. The colours are wonderful.

I like both colours but the tomato is pure juiciness! Works great for winter! Great pattern too. Cheers from the Jacaranda City (at the moment)
Hi, thanks for your comment :-) Why do you say “at the moment’ – you planning to move to Cape Town? :-)
Not CTN! Lived in Asia for 10 years until last year and would like to return asap!
haha, fair enough! :-)
Hi – just a quick question – where/how do I get hold of this pattern? I would love to hook up a scarf like this!
