I wanted to make myself a pair of fingerless gloves using the same yarn to match this infinity scarf.
The yarn is Marble Chunky and is super soft and this colorway is lovely.
close ups...I used a v stitch for the gloves and then added a short thumb hole. I edged the gloves with a shell stitch.
I still had some yarn leftover so decided to make a cowl. I knew I wouldn't have enough yarn left to complete it so I dug around in my stash until I found another yarn that would work with it.
It is hard to tell from the photo but the solid brown has a shimmer like the MC and it matches really well with a color that runs through the yarn. I did the cowl in hdc and then 2 rows have a bobble in there. I edged the whole thing in picot.
I used all but 8 inches of this yarn which is pretty good considering these were unplanned projects. I love being able to create things from what I have on hand.

Very nice. You look warm and cozy in your pretty new cowl and mitts.
Looking good! I love it! And I have a stash of yarn that needs to be used... Having fun along the blog party route! Aloha

You've been busy creating things to keep you warm during this cold spell. I love the fingerless gloves.
