Sophie74656 1,572 Posted November 4, 2015 Hey guys, this might seem like an odd request but I don't really have anywhere else to ask this. I'm working on a gift for someone. It's a crochet scarf that's going to look like sheet music. White scarf with black lines and music notes on it. I want the notes to be from an actual piece of music so what I'm looking for is a piece of piano music that is kinda simple so I can crochet the notes but also kind of well known does that make any sense at all? thanks in advance if anyone can help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KindaFamiliar 3,867 Posted November 4, 2015 I've a tattoo that is the sheet music to a section of a song that means something to me... All I did was Google the sheet music for the song and printed it out... Maybe you can just choose a song that suits you and your friend, Google the music, print and go from there...

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted November 5, 2015 Over the Rainbow has a fairly simple melody line. You could use google to find an easy or beginner version of a song you like. You may need to buy the sheet music unless you find something in the public domain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WLSResources/ClothingExch 3,444 Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) @@Sophie74656 Have you tried ravelry.com? Lots of people active on the site post instructions for their own designs with illustrations. I'd be surprised if you don't find an assortment of music. If you're asking for a simple composition because the giftee is a beginning music student, that's one thing. If you're asking because you expect it to be easier to transfer the stitch pattern onto graph paper or something like that and are a new-ish crocheter [the rest of this got lost during an edit and I can't guess what it may have been]. I've a tattoo that is the sheet music to a section of a song that means something to me... crocheter, you should also be able to find tabs with info to increase your skills. The forums are also an excellent source of info. You know how it is -- when people are passionate about something, they are happy to share. That's the best I can offer. I don't crochet. (I know I left a note for you earlier. Maybe I didn't hit "send.") @@KindaFamiliar -- is your song a secret or will you divulge? You don't have to go into why the song is meaningful.

KindaFamiliar 3,867 Posted November 5, 2015 @@WLSResources/ClothingExch As you've asked so nicely, I'll happily tell you about my tattoo.. It's the music to a section of "My Way"... This particular section is where the lyrics go as follows... "For what is a man? What has he got? If not himself Then he has nought He'll say the things He truly feels And not the words Of one who kneels" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WLSResources/ClothingExch 3,444 Posted November 6, 2015 @@KindaFamiliar -- Don't I always? Don't you know by now that I'm nicely? Good song, the choice self-explanatory and the reason for the choice remains yours. This worked out well. Big tatt is my guess. The music rather than the lyrics has style.
