Pattern: Boteh Scarf, Interweave Crochet Spring/Summer 07
Yarn: Cherry Tree hill supersock in Green Mountain Madness, 1 skein
Hook: US size F
Notes: Wow, scarves take me forever to finish, don’t they? I’m happy with how this came out. There is an error in the pattern (correction here) resulting in me restarting this scarf after I was halfway finished. It was fun and not too repetative, but crochet tends to hurt my wrists, so I took it very slowly. I did find the border to be a bit confusing, so I fudged a bit and I’m happy with how mine came out. It isn’t terribly long, but I extended it a bit in blocking, so now it’s fine I think. I would recommend this pattern, especially to anyone with some sock yarn to use up. I’m pleased that this yarn will not be hidden in my shoes. I think the colors are so pretty!
Nice scarf! That pig is great too!
The scarf looks great! I love the colors. It’s on my “to do” list as a gift for my sister 🙂
Pretty scarf! I don’t wear them, so I don’t make them, but I could see myself wearing that one. And I have some pretty sock yarn I don’t want to hide in my shoes either. Thanks for the suggestion.
Wow, this scarf is really pretty. Too bad it hurt your wrists. Wonder if it was the crocheting or this scarf in particular?! I tend to have problems with my wrists when I knit sometimes, so perhaps this isn’t anything for me. Too bad…
Very nice, I’d love to make this one, too. Such a nice idea to use your sock yarn.
Super Nice!
Wish I knew how to crochet! The scarf is lovely – I agree that those colors are great and shouldn’t be hidden in shoes…
It’s the first time I read your blog, I’m sure you’ll be hearing more of me, though! It’s amazing the amount of sweaters you’ve knitted! And how pretty they end up looking like!
Ansious to see your next post!
Chuana 🙂
So pretty! I’ve got two beautiful skeins of Cherry Tree Hill – I think one of them needs to become this!
The pattern works so well with the color variations in the yarn – very pretty! 🙂
I love the scarf. I think I am going to have to make this. I don’t have any sock yarn to speak of much, but this gives me a great excuse to buy some!
Your scarf looks great! You chose a gorgeous colour, very nice! I’ve got a second one on the go now, for my daughter.
Nice job! It looks really great in that yarn. Gotta try that pattern some time.
Beautiful scarf! Love the colors on you!
Hey! Your scarf is lovely. And lovely on you.
I’m so glad you finished it after your scary start.
The mistake wasn’t mine, I assure you. Heh.
I’m so glad I did a web search for others who made the Boteh before I began it… THANK YOU for taking the time to post a link to the correction! You’ve no doubt saved me some frustration!
Your scarf is just lovely.
bonjour, superbe cette écharpe. J’aimerais les explications en français ou éventuellement sur une grille merci d’avance
I don’t know if you’ll get this (one year later), but your scarf is WAY prettier than the original pattern piece. I think I will use some of that sock yarn that would’ve been too delicate/colorful for socks–Thanks for the great inspiration!
Where is the pattern for this beautiful scarf??
