scarves to keep warm by

The snow may have receded, for now, but it's still cold out. Even on sunny days, the wind is vicious and mean, creeping into your skin and chilling you. Plus, I have a bad neck, so scarves, more than ever, are important when I head out.

I saw one in a boutique the other day. I didn't buy it, but I wish I had done ...

Here are a couple I would also like to buy and a couple I would like to make. Unless I go back and get the one I saw in the shop ...


Savanna Scenery scarf by Ruche



Constellations Scarf created by A Beautiful Mess

Carmen Wong scarf by Plumo - on sale!

Buttoned up Infinity Scarf created by ps:heart


And here's a link with a great tutorial for making a handy scarf storage device - because, let's face it, they take up a lot of room if you just bunch them up. And then you can never find the one you wanted anyway ...

Spare clothes hanger? Left over shower curtain hoops? Here's what to do with them ...

If you're looking for more making inspiration, here's another great pattern here, and a few here too.

Hope you're keeping warm, super new scarf or just plain old one from the back of the cupboard ...

      It's taken me a while to get used to wearing scarves in summer - but I do love it now! :)

    My scarves are more the wintery-keep-me-warm kind -- but these are all awesome.

      I certainly agree that you have to match the thickness of your scarf to your environment ;)

      Thank you for the follow too - and the comment :) I too am not sure how many scarves I already have, hence me trying not to buy anymore, even when I'd like to!

    I cannot go outside at the moment without a scarf, they just make such a big difference. I love the one from ABM, it's absolutely gorgeous xo
