This is quite an antithesis...and that's how I named this cowl because
I have always been ranting around about cowls. I found it
impractical...and would rather go for scarf. That was until I saw the
Scrumptious Neck Warmer. For some reasons, it caught my eyes and I
decided to knit one up for myself.
I just winged the pattern,
because seriously, it just looks so simple for me that I think I can
improvise it easily enough. Neither am I disregarding the designer -
because I'm sure she's done a great job on it -, nor is it my intention
of "stealing" the pattern. Besides, now that I look at it again and
comparing to the original, I've done something totally different to it.
And since it was such a quick and easy knit, I'm thinking about making another one....we'll see about that. Perhaps in grey this time. ;-p
Well, that's all I have to tell right now. I still have another FO up
my sleeves and will hopefully blog about it before Christmas.
Wishing you all a great start to the week and if I don't get around to blogging before then: A Merry Christmas to all!
