That 70's Scarf

CARLY- Men's/ Unisex Retro Autumn Smash Scarf Orange Brown Yellow
Originally uploaded by smittenkittenorig

Yes, that's exactly how I feel about Carly. It's all retro and fun. When I picked up the yarn, it didn't dawn on me that it'd work up this way or that the color scheme gave off that vibe. After it was finished & I looked at it, it was so clear.

I've often wondered why the colors of the 70's seemed to be really earthy with all the browns & oranges (I mean really, ORANGE?!). Did something happen that made these the standard... and not always in a good way? I've seen pictures of brown wall paneling & orange & yellow patterned lino on the floor my parents had and all I can say is... WOW. ;D I'm all for it in combination in small pieces, but all over a house in decor, not so much.

Well, autumn is coming & orange is one of those colors. Actually, orange seems to be good for both summer & fall. Hm. Well, either season it reigns is, Norris is fresh and eye-catching. I love it!

I've made another SAMANTHA

SAMANTHA- Scrolling Infinity Scarf Black

And the pictures were near perfect! Yay! Samantha never stays around long but I was glad to get this one done. The grey is just as popular as the black, but for some reason, I rarely get to making the black as often. Idk why. Anywho, here she is & isn't she lovely?

That's all for the moment, I've got to get back to work (I'm finishing up a grey SAMANTHA) but there's more SKO goodness to come.

Happy August!
