The scarves I call art scarves, are different in that I use many different yarns, knitting with up to 10 strands at once and constantly changing and tying on new yarns as I knit to create a fun and exciting cacophony of textures and colors. The wild fringe mixes started with my art scarves and I now carry that over to my other scarves for a popular dramatic look.

The extra knitting time and multiple yarns price these art scarves out between $69 and $95 depending on size. The long ones may be worn doubled around the shoulders as a shawl. These scarves are dense, heavy, and warm due to the quantity of yarn used in knitting them. View my setup for knitting these scarves here.

I have a hard time keeping these in inventory as they have proven to be very popular yet timely to make. I am happy to take orders on general color schemes. Many color schemes may be inspired by my beaded designs.

While many of my added art forms may seem to stray far from my usual work, I am actually quite amazed at how each one influences another. I think my customers will find a continuity in my use of color, textures, and the mix and variety used in each. I feel that in each of these overdone mediums I have struck a unique cord to create something new in clay, beads, or knitwear. My goal in creating anything is to bring a new voice, my unique voice, to the tried and true and sometimes overdone crafts. My aim is to experiment in such a way that I may take each craft to a more artful level. The materials themselves are often what calls me to play with a new craft. I was definitely called to knitting by the aisles and aisles of soft, colorful, textures of the new yarn offerings. Finally I succumbed to the call and fell in head over heels. I'm hooked on knitting.
