Raising A Bilingual Family & Ray Bans Giveaway

This is a post on behalf of Verizon FiOS. I was raised bilingual, even though my parent’s did not spoke any English at all. Thankfully, I was very young and was able to learn English very quickly during all my elementary school years. My parents don’t talk any English, but they do seem to understand…

    1 Corinthians 13:4-8New International Version (NIV)

    4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.ReplyCancel

DIY Knitted Pom Pom Scarf Tutorial

I apologize for the big delay in writing this post. Life has been hectic, specially around the holidays. Our last bow scarf I designed was so popular so I had to create a different design so you can give it a try. This scarf is super easy and great for beginners trying to learn how…

    I’ve been a knitter for 15 years but I still love super simple patterns that result in chic style like this scarf. And it doesn’t hurt, the model is SUPER CUTE. I love your needles. They look like copper!? Or are they colored steel? Wherever you got them, I might have to get some too.ReplyCancel

  • Carly

    I love this! So simple. I can’t seem to find your pom pom tutorial. I found your faux fur one, but not for yarn. Can you help me? Thank you!ReplyCancel

  • Cayley

    This is great!! A couple questions though…

    How did you taper down at the bottoms and meet up with the pom pom?
    Also, how many times did you wrap around your fingers to get the pom poms so large?
    Last question, I love the length of this scarf. Do you know how many rows you did approximately?

    Thanks!!
    CayleyReplyCancel

    • Hi Cayley,
      When creating the pom poms, make sure to leave the strands that you tied the yarn to make the pom pom,, long enough to weave and tie them to each tip of the ends of the scarf.

      It takes a lot of yarn to make the pom poms, I would practice with one and see how big it comes out to be.

      I didn’t count the rows, I measured the scarf on my daughter as I was knitting and finished to where I felt it was a good length.

      Hope this helps.ReplyCancel

  • Nick

    Hi I was wondering what yarn you used I have to order yarn online which is so hard to know what is right
    thanks
    great color !ReplyCancel

  • Karen

    Hi! This is just as adorable as the bow scarf! I made two of those for my granddaughters, and they were a hit!
    I love the colors! What color yarn did you use for the pom pom?ReplyCancel

    • Thanks! Glad they liked them!I don’t quite remember the name. Sorry.ReplyCancel

  • Abby

    Hi, I absolutely love this color and i’m starting this now. My question is is this just knit?? Or is there purl too?ReplyCancel

    • Hi Abby,

      Yes, just knit. 🙂ReplyCancel

      • Thank you!!! Also, did you do an increase on the first couple rows in order to wrap around the pom poms?ReplyCancel

  • […] Knitted PomPom Scarf by Little Inspirations  – I love the look of this. Its so adorable, and the little girl modeling it is SO cute! On this blog, she actually has pictures teaching you how to cast on, to knit, and to cast off! So if you have absolutely no idea how to knit, and want to make this scarf… you can do that!

  • missy

    Is this scarf wrapped around this little girl twice? I am in the process of making one for xmas and don’t know how long to make it. I cannot measure it on my girls because its a present for them.ReplyCancel

    • Yes it is. I suggest get a regular scarf and try on your daughter. Then based the length on the regular scarf. Let me know if that helps.ReplyCancel

Chocolate Dipped Fruit Snacks.. with the kids!

I’m not a huge fan of the cold, so when January rolls around I’m mostly indoors. I also naturally start gearing towards healthier snacks after all the holiday binging. Ok, the chocolate could have been more natural, but melting chocolate chips is way easier! The fruit, however, what could be healthier? Anabelle is a huge…
