Hand-knit cowl

handknit cowl, for my sister

I finally finished this hand-knit cowl neckwarmer for my sister that I started ages ago, after seeing this flickr photo. I used Lambs Pride Bulky in ‘seafoam’, purchased at Spinster Yarns and Fibers on Harford Road. If I had it to do over again, I’d cast on probably a third fewer stitches (and make someone else do the modeling).

Now all’s that’s left is to mail it off to Ohio before the weather officially turns.

Leaving me a comment, eh? Have I mentioned how gorgeous you look in that shirt/kilt/jumpsuit/riding ensemble?
