Chenille Scarf in "Plum Chutney"

Reasons why I love this scarf is because they are so incredibly warm and have a pretty color pattern. The fuchsia, chocolate, and olive colors swirl together for a mixed design. Speaking of chocolate, I LOVE dark chocolate! The darkest I've tried is 85%...sooo good. The intensity of cacao flavor is insane. Okay, I guess I'm drifting away from the subject. So. Back to the scarf. I can customize it into an infinity if you want, make it wider or longer, for a small additional charge.

This past weekend, my family visited San Francisco. Of course, we also visited Alcatraz Island. While listening to the audio tour and walking around the prison, I learned that some of the cons crocheted in their cells! Well, if you're stuck in a cell with nothing to do, crocheting is a great way to pass time. Apparently, one man's grandma had taught him how to crochet, so he taught his fellow prisoners how to crochet as well. I guess I do have something in common with those prisoners after all.

Crochet is a craft that involves a hook, yarn, and your fingers. You can make pretty much anything out of it. What I like to crochet are accessories you can wear like hats, scarves, and baby booties. I find it amazing how a ball of yarn can turn into a baby blanket that (if done correctly and under normal circumstances) will not come apart unless you cut it into pieces. :P Okay. That was a bad joke.

When I was nine, I took a crochet class at my homeschooling co-op. It was a tricky process at first, I'll admit, but once I got the hang of it, I was whipping out hats and scarves like crazy. Part of why I fell in love with crochet was the creativity and variety of things you can make. Take a scarf. There are so many ways to customize it. Fringe, flowers, stripes, pockets, hood...you name it. And then there's yarn. Seriously, whenever I walk into the yarn aisle at the craft store, I'm like, in a dream. There's the silky yarn, the metallic yarn, the pretty colored baby yarn, fuzzy yarn, and so much more.

In crochet, there are so many different directions you can take. I chose to turn my passion first into a class at my homeschool group, then into a business. I also love crochet because I can use it for God's glory, as Colossians 3:23-24 states:

"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as you reward. You are serving the Lord Christ."

When I was 10, I decided to sell hats and scarves to fundraise for Voice of the Martyr's Wells for Bangladesh, a ministry that, in this case, builds wells for people who don't have clean water. Though it was tough crocheting all those, what, 20 hats and scarves, it was definitely worth it. I managed to raise enough money for one well that helped bless others.

Spider Shells Infinity Scarf

This past year, when my uncle and his family were visiting, I showed them some of my inventory and asked for some ideas. I still remember my aunt telling me how the Metallic Intertwined Lacets Scarf could be turned into some sort of infinity scarf. Some months later, I picked out a brilliant black metallic yarn, the same brand that I used for the Metallic Intertwined Lacets Scarf (Patons Metallic), a beautiful pattern (Spider Shells), and picked up my hook and started crocheting my own pattern. To be honest, this was my first infinity scarf I have made. When it was finished, I have to say it was worth all the work. It is so pretty and elegant. It can be worn to dress up an outfit or stylishly warm you up. I like to wear it twisted around once so that it is double up, but you can wear it however you like.
