What brings it into focus for me is that next week is Thanksgiving and I have to get
my scarves in the mail to Dawn for this years shipment to military personnel. Each year for the last several, Dawn has coordinated with military personnal in her hometown to see that folks who do not get packages at the holidays get something. Her crochet family has done a great job of providing scarves, and other businesses in her community provide extras, like toothpaste, candy, shampoo, etc. About a year ago, my local Hancock fabrics went out of biz, and I bought several skeins of Lion Brand Wool-Ease at closeout prices. I have been trying to make scarves out of 1 skein, using all kinds of methods. I have used stitch pattern books, patterns, elements from afghans, etc. Whatever I found interesting at the time. So here are this years scarves.
