What can I crochet with a velvety yarn?

ZenKnitting — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 02:22:21 +0000

I only have a 139 yards of Lion Chenille and I wanted to know if anyone had any good ideas on what I can crochet for my aunt on her birthday Friday.

I’m fairly new to crochet but I’m learning very fast, but if anyone posts any directions can you please make sure you can check back in case I have questions?

Thanks in advanced!
Oh, BTW, no scarfs. I made them scarfs for Christmas.

What size yarn do you use with Lions Brand Speed Stix?

ZenKnitting — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 07:27:26 +0000

Does it matter what size you use? I want to make the 1 hour scarf pattern on the back. It says use 4 strands of yarn together as if they were one but it doesn’t say what size. At first I started grabbing bulky yard in the store. But I started to think 4 stands of bulky would be too big so I put them back & got worsted weight. Now I’m worried worsted might not be big enough. I just don’t want it to look too lacy.
