Super easy cowl

By , August 26, 2015 12:30 pm

Now that my snister’s birthday has passed, I can tell you what I was working on with that jumbo yarn – a cowl for her!

Doesn’t it go perfectly with the hoodie Mom gave her?!

This is the first time the photo on the yarn label (<— click there for pattern) has attracted me to the skein first, rather than the yarn itself. A project that only requires one skein, and just 17 stitches per row? Sounds easy-peasy!

It was! Easy enough that I got three done in three days, only spending a bit more than an hour on each.

I made another for my friend Dawn, for her birthday.

That’s me, not Dawn, ha ha

Steven liked the way they turned out, so I bought a skein to make him one as well*! I might even make myself one. Can you believe, that with all this knitting, I haven’t made anything for myself, yet?!

*Although he keeps asking when I’m going to knit him the tie he requested months ago, hee hee.

    So cute! This almost makes me want to try knitting again (though I think I got rid of my needles… and I can’t really remember how to do it) if it’s that quick and easy!

    I want to see you, Steven and Data ALL in cowls. So keep on knitting!

  5. OH man!! I want one!!

    …or maybe I should learn how to knit. LOL.

    I do a lot of my knitting for other people, too! (Except now that I’m doing garments, that’s mostly for me because fitting is hard.)

    I love the color of Christina’s cowl!

      How would that even work, knitting a garment for someone else?! “Can you send me your sleeve and bust and etc. measurement?” LOL! I would be worried as I was working on it, too. I’d want to check it as I went!
