Reasons I Wish I Could Knit Better. . .

I love Roses' scarf.  I have already tried to crochet her wrist warmers from Doomsday, but unfortunately I couldn't get the cables with crochet.  Basically, they looked nothing like her wrist warmers. I'm not even going to try and crochet this awesome scarf.  Its beautiful and quirky and I think it is one of Roses' styles that I could pull off.  I just hope that someday my knitting skills are advanced enough for me to be able to attempt it.  Right now, I can barely purl, much less read a knitting pattern.  Oh well, practice makes perfect right?

Blueberry Chill Round Scarf (Thick)

(I love crocheting with boucle yarn.  The yarn is so soft and airy.  It's perfect for round scarves because it doesn't feel stiff and scratchy around the neck.)
