Knit & Crochet Scarves

I've been able to do a bit of knitting and crocheting. I try to pay more attention to how long I've been in one position and minimising my arm movements. I still need a heat rub on my elbow after a night of crafting and a good stretch.

With the weather turning colder, it was just the right time to have finished two scarves. The first one I knitted with leftover Panda Rustica yarn. I didn't use a pattern and just made it up as I went. It's a combination of garter stitch and some randomly placed drop stitches. It's so soft and toasty!

The next scarf is perfect for Autumn and Spring. Again I used leftover yarn and combined two colourways. It's a quick and easy beginner crochet project and I highly recommend it. I absolutely love this skinny scarf!
