I love these scarves!! The colors are so visually appealing to me and I am colorblind so that is saying a lot!!! Would it be to much to ask you what colors you used for both the ones pictured, or at least the lighter one? If not I understand, but have to ask it's just so beautiful. Thanks :)
Oh thank you Cyyndie!! The lighter one is Mandala Centaur paired with ILTY linen. The blue one is Mandala Spirit paired with ILTY antique teal.
Thank you, and wow, that was the fastest reply I have gotten on a blog comment in my life!! Thank you for that too. I also love your earwarmer pattern, which I have made a dozen so far... you're doing an incredible job designing!
I thnik the one with mint green is Genie Mandala I do not know what other yarn is used.
That was pretty fast lol!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m glad you’ve gotten good use of the earwarmer pattern.
These scarves are beautiful! I need help.
Can't wrap my head around the second row. Can you help please? I'm chaining 1 and turning, then a hdc in the first stitch. then 2 hdc2to and 1 hdc in 2nd stitch, put a stitch marker in that stitch ch1, turn. hdc in 1st st, hdc2tog, hdc2tog, hdc 2, place a st marker in that stitch then hdc in each st until the next st marker. A marked st, hdc2tog, hdc2tog, hdc in last st. Is this correct? Thank you
Awww thanks Marilyn!!
To create the scarf it’s basically just a large rectangle but we’ll be working 2 decreases on both ends which is what creates the tapered ends.
Start with a hdc in the 1st st, then hdc2tog over the next two stitches, hdc2tog over the next two stitches, hdc in the next st, hdc in the next st and place a stitch marker (this should be the 5th st you’ve made.) Then you’ll continue to hdc in each st until you reach the marker from the previous row. (Here you start decreases again). Hdc2tog over the next 2 st. Hdc2tog over the next 2 st. Hdc.
Then you can ch 1 and start the next row.
These are beautiful! I just love them! I have a bunch of mandala yarn. If I wanted to make one just with mandala, what size hook would you suggest using?
Thank you Debi!! If you were going to double up two mandala (which I think would be super fun) I think going down to K hook would work- you would likely want to add a few to your starting chain though to keep the length. To make it with just one strand of mandala, I’m not sure how I might adjust it. Since this is quite thick as it’s designed, I think using only one strand of mandala would drastically change the look. I usually go to an H hook when I work with mandala but how far you’ll need to adjust the starting chain or if the tapered ends will work out quite the same- I’m just not sure without actually working one up. Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful than that.
I just happen to have the mandala yarn Warlock Sorcier & was thinking of using Stylecraft Special DK Mocha . Would this yarn be ok to use?
