Peacock Buffet Scarf Finished and Pic Added 8/28

TX CrochetLover · Peacock Buffet Scarf Finished and Pic Added 8/28

I have a wedding gift I have to get done by next month, so I will be really pushing to get this done in time. I think it is going to be really pretty.

I first decided to do it in size 10 thread. I only had enough of one brand of "antique" thread to do it with. It looked horrible! I did three rows and said, nope not gonna work.
So, off the HL I went and lucky for me they had three balls of size 20 Cebelia. So, I started over. Then, when I was on row 3, I found a mistake on--- guess? Yep, row one!!! Grr...!!!!!!!!

And I thought I had counted better than that! Anyhoo, the 20 looks so nice. Now, if I can just get in finished in time.
So, for now, no other crochet work is to be done until I finish this gift!

Here is a pic of the finished piece!

That is a very pretty pattern.

That is such a pretty pattern! I love working with thread but my hand cramps up so bad. I can't imagine working with size 20! I did that once for a bracelet in an accessory swap I was in and it took all that I had to work with that.

I am on row 10! Yippee!!!! I worked pretty hard on it yesterday. Now, I just have 70 something rows to go!
I am using a 10 hook, cause I don't have a twelve.

I am finished! Yippee!!!! I go it done on Friday. Only took me 24 days! LOL! I washed it and sometime today I will spritz and block it out. Maybe just press with spray starch. Anyhoo, I am so glad to be finished and it looks really nice. I'll take a pic after I finish it out and show ya'll.

I added a pic on post one. I do not know why the thing looks yellow in the picture. You know one of these days I will learn more about my camera and how to edit!

Wow Selena...that's gorgeous!! Well worth the time it took!!

vernzap

JazzRizz

Selena,

That's Beautiful!

LadySnow

Wow....that is beautiful!

Miss Kitty

Wow, Selena!!! That turned out beautiful....

TX CrochetLover

Thanks everyone! I have to figure a way to fold it without putting big creases in it. I heard somewhere you can fold fabric in tissue paper and it won't wrinkle. Ya think it will work for this?

Miss Kitty

I heard that, too..
Don't see why it wouldn't..

Monique39

so gorgeous.. How I wish I could do Filet!

TX CrochetLover

Thanks! Filet is really pretty easy. The trick is to keep your place on the chart. It's just DC and chains. And you have to count! LOL!

Summerysmile

Wow! Amazing...those are the kinds of patterns I just look at but never make. What a nice gift!
