We had many, many people to thank for helping with our Vow Renewal. Some got money, some got gas cards, some got the Sunflower arrangements after the ceremony. The couple that loaned us the barn got a framed picture of their barn that I took, and added a verse to:
But I had more people to thank, some lovely ladies to be exact.
Remember a while back, I posted about making some t-shirt scarves?
Well, when it was time to think of Thank You gifts for the remaining participants of our Vow Renewal, I knew this was the answer.
So, I made 3 of them.
One for Shelby, our soloist, which I tried on here.
ANNNND, I made one for me out of Shelby’s extra material! 
{What? There was just enough left!}
One for Kasey, who made gobs of cookies and spoke:
And one for Ann, who had driven a long ways, just to sing “Our Song”. The very one she and her husband, Lynn sang at our wedding 10 years ago.
The girls LOVED them! 🙂 YAY!
{Ann, not pictured}
Shelby’s & Ann’s are a mixture of link style and spaghetti knit scarf made in a yoke styles, Kasey’s is all loops with tassels at the end.
The one I have on is a regular spaghetti scarf.
Oh, and while I was at it, I also made a Ruffle Scarf in Cougar colors for Destiny’s teacher:
I was so busy working on completing all these BEFORE the renewal date, that I did not take photos of the process. Sorry!
However, AFTER the Renewal was all said and done, I still had one thank you scarf to make, and I did take the time to photograph it.
First, take a print t-shirt, stripes or tye die would be great!
Cut off the top of the shirt. From the bottom of the sleeve seam down, so that just the tube of fabric that covers your back and tummy remain.
Cut off the bottom stitching too.
Now, take that tube of t-shirt, and fold it in half, leaving a good inch more on the bottom half than the top half.
Cut all the way through the folded layer, not going beyond, like this:
Cut strips until you have completed the entire row.
Run your arm through the loops. See that uncut section? There is now a strip of uncut t-shirt on top. 
Tug hard on the top and bottom of the loops like this…..
Take a strip of cloth from the sleeve and gather the scarf at the uncut section and wrap like this:
Tie underneath wrap to secure.
Ta da! A spaghetti scarf. The fastest and easiest of all t-shirt scarves!
