I had some lovely yarn from a
'Swap' in June. They travelled across the pond from the USA and are brands I am not familiar with. Pinks and Greens are my favourite colours, especially together. I think these two yarns were made for each other.

I used double crochet to stripe them together and make a warm scarf. I love the resulting 'fabric'. I cannot yet master very fancy or technical patterns but I love the textured and colour effects you can create with simple stitches and combining yarns. The way the weather has changed I will be needing this scarf really soon.
I'm glad you enjoyed your swap yarn. The pinks and greens look lovely together :)

Those yarns don't need to be in a fancy schmancy pattern they speak for themselves. Gorgeous colours! The multicoloured one is very like King Cole Riot if you wanted a UK version.
