Now, Now ... no name calling! I know I'm already loopy!

What I mean is that I'm looking for a scarf pattern that would be similar to this scarf that is in the recent Talbot's catalog - the Holiday 2005 version.

It just looks like it would be fun to make. I can't tell if it's made with the loop stitch as shown in Amy's video or if it is made from some kind of loopy yarn. Has anyone heard of a loopy yarn? I found this one ... which isn't quite what I'm looking for - it's more of a boucle: http://www.chadiscrafts.com/Bouclekippot.html

This (http://www.knithappens.net/shop/index.cfm?Product_ID=GGHtib&page=details.cfm&cartaction=none&thisrow=10&action=list&criteria=3207&startrow=1&mystartrow=1&maxrows=20&cat=3&man=&stay=&afid=&searchcat_id=&itemprice=&searchfield=&searchman_id=&boolean=OR&var1=&var2=&var3=&return_product_id=&makeid=&modelid=&modelyear=) one may work:

And ... how do I make those links I'm copying in to this post look like the rest of you do it? With just one word highlighted that takes you to the link?

Thanks!

I fixed the link for you, Kitten....if you click on "edit" in your above post, you can see how I did it.

yeah i am no help...i can't see the scarf well enough on this computer to be of any real assistance...sorry

Brenda Louise ... I KNEW you'd have to respond to that subject line in some fashion! :devil:

KK -- thanks for fixin' me up with the links ... if I had just looked around a little longer I would have seen the URL link. S L O W L Y but Shirley (quit calling me Shirley!) I'll figure all of this out.

Now ... where's a pattern!?!

:XX:

Is this (http://www.joann.com/content/projects/projectsDisplay.jhtml;$sessionid$PS5K5MQAAAXTCP4SY 5LRHOR50LD3UEPO?articlePath=%2Fcontent%2Fprojects% 2Fstatic%2Fnew%2Fmelody_loopy_scarf.jhtml&CATID=25293) what u r looking for :D ?!

Thats close to what it looked like, Rebecca. But, oh ... do I have the patience to make each one of those loops!? I doubt it. I'm part of the Microwave Generation, you know. I want it NOW!!!

I wanna be loopy!
Just drink more!

did you watch the loopy video on the site? it doesn't look terribly complicated, though prolly time consuming...

Loops are really FUN to make :D !! ....trust me ;)

"Trust Me" from the woman who says socks are easy!?!?!

:XX:

;) U will one day 'remember when' I said that they were easy and agree ;) ....trust me :D

I can't wait to brave it, Rebecca. I LOVE all the sock yarn -- I'm just not adept at handling the DPN's quickly yet. I can use them ... but I'm slow and awkward with them. And, my ol' eyes have a little trouble with the thinner yarn and smaller needles. I'm not a very patient person. I have to remember -- it's not the destination, but the journey - that is important.
