Blue Ice- Autumn/Winter 13/14

Nice colours, huh?

The variegated yarn that I’ve used in this set reminds me of the big blue icebergs. They show incredible colours and, as it happens with fire, you can spend hours and hours looking at it absolutely transfixed.

And you’d like to know why the icebergs are blue (if not I’m going to tell you anyway): basically what happens is that snow is white due to the air bubbles contained in it and it reflects light. Old icebergs are made of compacted ice, which doesn't contain air bubbles and absorbs all the light but blue. Other colours may be due to sediment layers, layers containing microorganisms or sea water that has frozen in cracks of the iceberg.
That’s all. Not such a big deal, right?

OK so today’s set consists of a highly textured crocheted hat and a mesh infinite scarf that you can wear in different ways. I don't use acrylic yarns but this one is so soft...Besides people allergic to wool deserve it!


The hat’s design is my own and the scarf has been designed by mooglyhere.


You can wear your scarf with the brooch or just keep it simple. The brooch is a buckle-like silver-plated piece and it’s very light.
