My lightweight shawls and scarves spent several years crammed into a drawer, with only the ones at the top being worn because it made too much mess to go down lower, but all that changed after my last trip to Ikea, where I bought a Komplement Multi-Use Hanger, and found a great use for it…
It’s a simple idea, 28 rings, crocheted together, with a hanger on the top, and it’s great for my scarves. I was a bit amazed that I managed to fill it instantly though!
Ta-da! It hangs on a over-door hanger on my bedroom door most of the time, so I see it and smile every time I go past, but there was no light to photograph it there, so I moved it into the spare room with its handy hanging rail. I tried to colour coordinate the scarves as best I could, but I’ve found out that over half of them are shades of pink or purple, with some blues thrown in, and just a couple of oranges and a green for variation. Perhaps I need to expand my colour palette a little!
Neat!
You need a yellow one…
Very cool…love the little holes for the scarves..
I’ve got one of those, they are so handy, I have it filled with hats and scarves by the front door. I need another one for my shawls though. I feel another trip to IKEA coming on.
What a clever idea! I wonder if I can bring myself to trek to Milton Keynes or Coventry for one?
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I want one! I NEED one for all my scarves! But there’s no Ikea anywhere near me in Norfolk! Having a mini-tantrum!
thanks for sharing this ckever idea
Your shawl collection is so beautiful!! :-)
