yarned medallions



i have a scarf pattern that strings together these beautiful crocheted medallions. each medallion is about 9" in diameter. i love that scarf, the medallions are so fun. but, it's a little warm now to wear that scarf. so, what's a girl to do?

well, to start with, i switched to a sock-weight yarn and the smallest hook i have in my arsenal. that gave me the medallion on the far left. then i cut down the number of stitches in the initial ring. that gave me the medallion in the middle. then i cut out the center ring altogether. that gave me the medallion on the far right. and that medallion, i do believe, will make the fabulous focal piece in a crocheted bracelet.

now i just need to figure out the side pieces and the fastener. one step at a time, right?
