Truly, I held off for as long as I could, but in the end I just couldn't resist. I had to make one of those famous Honey Cowls. And I'm glad I did - it was such a peaceful, gentle knit, and I learnt how to join in yarn when using circular needles. Hooray for me!
I've made this one for a friend who walks to work early in the morning, and I hope it keeps her snug under her coat and around her neck as the weather gets cooler. Sigh - I just love knitting when it's cold!

What a beautiful cowl. It's been a while since I've done any knitting but this cowl is tempting. Hopefully I can remember how to knit with circular needles.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous knit! Circular needles can be such a joy to use. :-)

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I made one of these a while back for my sister and it was such a nice, meditative knit. Cashmerino is the best!
