Bittersweet Moment - Fox Scarf

I'm sad and happy that my fox scarf sold last weekend: 

I'm ecstatic that is was purchased. A lady bought it as a gift to her niece. But it was a lovely one-of-a-kind piece (even though I used a pattern, it was still very unique) that I really liked. It just means I will have to make myself another one, doesn't it?

She's also asked for a custom item, which I'm also very happy to make. I hope she decides to proceed

Fox Stole - Part II

Remember when I posted a teaser the other day of my fox 'stole'?? Well, here's the finished scarf, it's over 50" long and all made with wool so it's very warm.

I am very happy with it. I think I should keep it, Jp thinks I should put it up for sale  - but it has over $40 in wool alone, not even counting my time to make it - one general rule is to double your materials, would someone pay $80 for this scarf?

Fox Stole

You were wondering why I hadn't been posting on my blog? That's because I was making things!!!

Here's another project, my fox stole:

This is a crocheted scarf that includes 4 black legs and a white tipped tail. I have already crocheted 48" of his body, and I just need to sew in his legs and then finish the tail. It's crocheted as a 'tube' so it's nice and thick and any sewing is concealed inside - which is why the pattern maker has us complete all the sewing before we finish. I'd better hurry or the fox craze will be gone and winter is over!

This is made from Peruvian Highland Wool so I think it will wear well and will keep me warm. What do you think of it so far?
