cowls

ever since i lost my mind, became obsessed started knitting the inpira cowl, i just can't stop. i finished the first version and it is lovely. perfect for taking the dogs out in this sub-zero weather.
i was afraid that it would be scratchy, but not an itch was felt! i was carrying on about it so much, that a request was made for one in more manly shades, narrower in width and not so long. ( you've got to love a dude that knows what he wants :)
wish granted. i'm still having a good time watching the colors shift and blend. the only hitch is that i started this for amythefibergoddess....
the swirl cowl in 'grapevine', a lovely dk weight yarn that she will be selling at the knitting circle's artisan market. it has a picot edge that is really slowing me down.
it may not be the edge but the -3 degree weather. i just can't get warm and stay warm. today's sunshine helped, but i'm snuggled up on the couch, tooooo chilled to even pick up the needles. tomorrow with a nice cup of tea, that will get me going!
