I saw this scarf in a Lion Brand booklet for their Suede yarn, I decided to go for Berroco's Suede instead and changed the colors completely. I am thrilled with the results.

Shelly and Bryan Amigurumi Dolls
Gab from www.roxycraft.com created a pattern for Lion Brand which I downloaded for free. For the time being my amigurumis are bold as I haven't found the right yarn for their hair. I changed the colors a little bit and this is how mine turned out.

Toy: Yo-Yo Clown
Scarves craziness or how my crochet creations got started
My grandmother tried to teach me how to crochet as a child, her efforts proved fruitful in the long-term. As a child I was never able to remember all the movements and loops for sc, hdc, dc so I stuck with cross stitch. Finally, after 20+ years of schooling and a Masters in Operations Research*, I got a corporate job and found myself with lots of free time on my hands to spend on hobbies.
I took a class at Jo-Ann and started my scarf production. I must have done more than 15 scarves, and my entire family started making fun of me, but I learned to count, improved my gauge and learned intricate stitches.
Patterns for these scarves came from www.lionbrand.com
*If you don't know what Operations Research is, www.informs.org is a good place to start and learn what it is. Contrary to general believe it has nothing to do with surgery or medicine.
