Lana Ondas - Ruffle yarn

Hace unas semanas me agencie unos 50g de lana de cinta en tonos azules en una tienda de caridad. No tenia ni idea  que hacer con ella ni como, simplemente porque era preciosa. Y estos fines de semana griposos en casa me han dado la oportunidad de averiguar que lana era (Katia Ondas) y buscar  tecnicas para hacerme una bufanda . Encontre tres:  una a punto y dos a ganchillo : un video en portugues de Elaine Crochet y el mas facil el video de Mikey de  All Free Crochet.com). Desbarate un par de intentos pero consegui acabar la bufanda el sabado. Si sois impacientes (como yo) os recomiendo los patrones a ganchillo, podeis haceros hasta dos bufandas en un dia.
A few weeks ago I came across some ruffle yarn in variegated blue. I had never seen this tape yarn and had no idea how to work with it. The last few weekends were spent at home with flu and I went searching for tecniques to work with it. I tried three, the knitting one  took too much yarn and I didn't have enough for an scarf . Then I tried this video from Elaine Crochet with instructions in portuguese which was easy enough, but I must have mistaken something because the scarf resulted too short.  Tried this video from Mikey from All Free Crochet.com and bingo, I even had some yarn left over which I added to the scarf. Something else I noticed, the yarn is very resilient, I unravelled it twice and it didn't show at al. If you are impatient like me, go for the crochet tutorials, you can do two scarfs in a day.
