The Pink Scarf Project

 Pink Alert!

Lots of pink in this post.

While I was in Florida this past winter I saw Vicki's post asking us to

 make pink scarves and send them to Kentucky, where they will

 become gifts of hope and given to women who are battling cancer.

I am not a fan of pink. 

It is one color that I rarely reach for. But this project tugged at my heart.

When my daughter came to visit, she snapped this photo of me, 

knitting,

 in 80 degree sunshine....

 of course I did have a cool drink.

When I came home I continued to knit. I also bought some pink fabric. 

I decided to make more than one scarf. A few knitted. A few sewn. and a few woven. 

 

I am still adding the finishing touches to the woven scarves....I'll show you when they are done.

Oh and I used the leftover yarn to make a banner for a local chemotherapy lounge.

I need to add some charms and beads and a few words of hope and it will be finished.

 

I like it so far. What do you think?

oh and can you believe I actually posted a photo of myself here?
  brave?  or stupid?   time will tell.
