Continuing on with making these lacy crochet scarves I have been summoning up the muster to have yet another go with trying to make something using some Sirdar Duet in Mahogany brown. I've tried a few different patterns now and it just looks limp and lifeless and I've had to undo everything and try again. It doesn't look like it but it is actually a worsted weight yarn.

It is really horrible stuff to work with, especially the shiny slippery part of the yarn and it needs to be used in a design that is more structured and sturdy. I didn't use all of the yarn that I had and I just binned the left overs as they really are not worth worrying about. I actually have this yarn in three more colours, blue, white and black and the plan is to make more shawls the same as I did years ago, which is actually a pattern specifically for this yarn.
I had my doubts about this scarf but I persevered and its come out OK despite the fact that it is technically all in one colour.
