Finished that cowl - FINALLY!

I found the pattern on Ravelry

The pattern is Abby by Amy Singer


This pattern is written to be used with handspun silk.  If I had any, I would have used it.   What I did have was some sock weight merino wool and it worked very nicely.



Ignore my scowling face.  I was trying so hard to see what kind of photo I'd get that I forgot to look somewhat pleasant.  





I made this to go with my green coat  (in the top photo).   The lining of the coat is the same shade of blue.

And - Heron should be finished in the next couple of days.  Just have to block it.

  1. Gorgeous. You know, I tried on a sweater the other day that actually CAME with a removable cowl. Couldn't believe it. Guess I should knit one, too!

  3. Very pretty. I have some handspun yarn that would go perfect with this.

  4. I wore my teal cowl today. I was a cold, snowy day and it kept me warm and went so well with my grey collarless sweater. Definitely a winner!
