Aquatic Blossom Corf

What is a Crof?!?! 

= when you can't decide if it is a cowl or a scarf so you get the best of two worlds! 

Variegated yarn has always been a favorite to work with. It provides nice color without having to worry about changing colors. The color placement tends to be a happy accident!

But I have noticed that as I work with solid and variegated yarn, there are some patterns and stitches that work better for one than the other. So what do you think of this Aquatic Blossom pattern from Crochet Geek, worked up in Loops & Threads Charisma yarn in the color Mulberry Bush?

 

Whilst shopping at Michael's I saw this yarn knit up in a little sample piece. Then I promptly and madly dug through the yarn bins to find the last two skeins. That little sample piece is doing it's job!

I can't get over how beautiful and rich the colors are.



As I worked it up I noticed that all the purples always ended up in the same position. I wasn't sure how I felt about it at first, but it has really grown on me.

As I was modeling it I quickly put together an outfit that would be great for a casual Friday, or running around town. I love the purple shoes for an accent.



Find it in my Etsy shop here.

Do you  like the length? Would you buy it?
