I usually don't make custom orders, but I had a repeat customer who purchased a Ticonderoga [Inspired] Pencil Scarf and works for Dixon request a Prang [Inspired] Paintbrush Scarf. So of course, I made it! I've been wanting to try different color combinations with my Paintbrush Scarf, and I also plan on making the Pencil Scarf in different colors. (I do not have a written pattern for this scarf.)
I wasn't familiar with how the Prang paintbrushes looked, so the customer sent me pictures of the paintbrush and the paint palette colors she wanted. The Prang paintbrush has white bristles, a silver ferrule, and a dark blue handle with a yellow end. The customer requested sparkly red paint on the tip of the brush bristles. I used Caron Simply Soft Party Red Sparkle, Vanna's Choice White, Red Heart With Love Metallic Light Grey, Vanna's Choice Navy, and Red Heart With Love Daffodil.
Whenever I crochet a paintbrush scarf, I have to use my paintbrush and palette stitch marker. I also enjoyed using my Wonder Woman [Inspired] Crochet Hook.
After the brush was complete, I crochet the paint palette.
I attached the palette to the scarf, and it was complete.
Ta-Da! I was so glad that the customer was very pleased with this scarf, and she...
...sent me a bunch of cool paintbrushes, colored pencils, paints, markers, pencils, and the cutest Ticonderoga erasers! The package really made my day, and I appreciated the love so much! My elementary school aged kids love painting and coloring, so these products will definitely be put to good use!
Super art scarf, and I love the thank you gift. So thoughtful. Thanks for joining in Ginx Woolly Linx Party.

Thanks! Yes, I made this pattern up, but I actually haven't written out the full pattern yet. I have notes and measurements.
DeleteEach time you share a new paintbrush scarf, I fall more and more in love with it! I picked this as one of my features at this week's party.
