second scrappy crochet scarf

I’ve started another scrappy crochet scarf, with colors inspired by my current landscape: brown, yellow and faded green.

It’s been a rough summer. Cornfields have been dry for a few weeks and the grass has been a lost cause since the major heat wave in July. Fields filled with soybeans look great from a distance, but when you get up close, they’re withered and wilting.

I took this picture last week because I couldn’t believe that the playground was so incredibly dry. The colors have stuck in my mind, and I found myself pulling similar shades out of my scrap bin the other day. I’m curious to see how they look together.

website notes: If you clicked the playground picture, you’ll find that I’ve been playing around with tumblr. I like it to keep track of little bits of inspiration. I’ve also decluttered the main navigation and sidebar. You’ll find links to my tumblr and flickr there as well. If you have a creative space on either, let me know. I’d love to check your stuff out!
