I saw a large ball of wool while out shopping........enough to knit a scarf.........in the exact colour to match a winter coat........with sequins in it.....for only £3.99.
When I opened it.......there was a pattern included.........with some abbreviations I'd never seen before.......so I did what I thought it meant.....which means I may have got it completely wrong!!!!! But I'm happy with how it turned out anyway.
This photo shows the proper colour of the scarf.........which exactly matches the blue in the coat.......so how does the camera make them look different colours???????????
And I've now started my next knitting project........which is a little more complicated......will have to see how I manage with that!

That is a fab monthly make Jacky. One of my favourite colours and with sparkle - just perfect. Hugs Cherry XXX
well - it is a lovely scarf Jacky - and teal blue is one of my favorite colors!
Love the sparkle! How lucky to find a colour that completely matched the coat, what are the chances of that happening?!
It looks great.
It's beautiful Jackie. I love knitting. Looking forward to seeing more projects. That is my very favourite shade of blue and it matches your coat beautifully. Lx
love the sparkle and what good luck to find the perfect match!
You knit too! So jealous, my Mom taught me how when I was young and I really have forgotten most of it. That scarf is very beautiful, the color and the style, great job!
It's a beautiful pattern and a beautiful color. On my screen, the colors are a pretty close match, but I know exactly what you mean about the camera.
Wow! You go girl! You're taking on all kinds of new projects & developing all kinds of new talents this year - good for you!

I'm loving your "happy accident" of getting the "destructions" wrong then - looks smashing

Just getting back to reading blogs after having a virus cleaned off my computer! Your scarf is absolutely lovely and I love the color and the sparkle of the sequins. Good job!
Very pretty! Isn't good to find something that matches so well and what a bargain buy for your scarf.
Doesn't look as though you got anything 'wrong' to me :)
