Versatility/Missouri-Made Mondays

Many accessories are out there for keeping us warm in the great outdoors. Both in stores and online you can find just about anything that suits your fancy. To keep up with new trends, I decided to change up one of my most popular items and create a scarf with a bonus attribute. This is my newest item for sale in the Katy Trail Creations Etsy shop.

Infinity scarves have long been popular. Not to mention they are pretty helpful when the wind is blowing. Who in the world wants to worry about their scarf blowing off.

But making it a little larger this go-round gives you a little extra for evenings out where you need a little shoulder coverage.

Or what about keeping grammy warm in church? Beats trying to hold up her coat on her shoulders.

Come back next week for another Missouri-Made Monday to see what's new in the shop.

Scraps Repurposed

Had a bunch of these cowls/circle/infinity scarves that sold out last year. That left me with a pretty significant bag of leftover yarn.

(My youngest daughter makes a fabulous model fyi)

Here's stage 1 of those leftovers.

Trying to decide on whether it just needs a border, or more squares.

Either one is an option.

Decision to come......

For those who don't follow me on Facebook or Twitter, here's the update on my mother.

She's officially back home now so it's Stage 2 for her now. Restrengthening her right side is her challenge. She needs the aid of a walker and has to try to think ahead on normal life instances. Such as how to get that cup of coffee from the coffee pot to her recliner in the next room. But she is one determined lady and we are confident this time next year she'll be back to her old self.
