There’s a tote (or two) that I keep tossing things in to take to MO. I want to show Addie the cowl I made for her teacher before I wrap it so I had already put it in the tote and was just fixing to put Addie’s in there when I realized I hadn’t taken a picture. It was late so . . excuse the bad lighting.
It’s folded in half . . I guess quarters really. The circumference when it’s open is 38″ so she’ll be able to wrap it twice. I cast on 101 stitches and made it 6″ wide. This is such a quick and easy pattern using the bulky weight yarn.
I submitted the teacher’s cowl and Addie’s cowl for the Winter Wear badge. It had to be something from chunky or heavier weight yarn and use at least 300 yards so, between the two of them, they meet the requirements. Once approved, I will have finished this year’s Yarnathon. I say I’m not going to do it next year but I’m already so excited to see what the new one will be about.
I say I’m not going to do a lot of things that I end up doing so . . don’t ever listen to me!

I’ve also said the past two years that I am NOT going to do row by row again (as I still have SO MANY kits untouched!!) but I’ve gotten sucked in every time! 🙁

Judy, your cowl enthusiasm motivated me to knit some cowls for granddaughters (6). I am about half finished with #1. I’m hopeful I’ll be able to get them all completed by Christmas Day.

I always listen to you! You are such an inspiration to me! Can hardly wait to start the sweater come January!!

Are you having fun? That’s the bottom line here! That cowl is so cute and a great color for Addie.

Please forgive me for not knowing but what does one wear a cowl for?
