Sweet Nothings Crochet: MY POINSETTIA SCARF

Sweet Nothings crochet pattern blog, paid pattern for a beautiful scarf,

MY POINSETTIA SCARF

The Poinsettia plant has been a long favourite. Its fascinating how the lovely bright green leaf suddenly goes from an awkward orange to red just as the 'winter' (in Mumbai) in December sets in - just in time for the 'traditional' festive season. It is therefore, the plant that is gifted during the Christmas season.

Oddly the 'bright coloured red flowers' are not flowers at all - but leaves.
The flower itself, is a tiny nondescript one in the centre.

I love the leaves of the plant as well.. they have such a lovely shape - and in our garden, hopefully over the next month, ours too will metamorphose into lovely red leaves.

Materials used : Today I’ve used a combinaton of our lovely Indian Red rose knitting cotton yarn with a 3.0 mm crochet hook

For Indians : You could use Anchor or Red rose knitting cotton as well

International yarns : I have used a regular knitting cotton that technically uses a 2 – 2.5 mm crochet hook (recommended). I use a larger hook as I like the extra stretch it affords the end product. Among the international yarns I have used in this thickness, I’d suggest Aunt Lydia Cotton 10, Aunt Lydia Bamboo-Viscose 10, DMC Petra, Sullivans knitting cotton (Australia), Milford Soft, Hilaza Rustica Eclat , Alize cotton yarn and Alize bamboo yarn.

I have just designed, tested and uploaded the first of my "Crochet inspired by Nature" series on Ravelry and you can see my creation at
