Is ready for the mail.
Although the pattern “Gap-tastic Cowl” is originally written for a chunky to bulky weight yarn (that is so popular this year) I’ve been making them in worsted weight.
Knit with 2 skeins of Noro Kureyon 270
I love the muted yet vibrant colors of Noro
The lighter weight provides a softer drape for those that don’t care for the bulk but, will still wrap easily around the neck twice to cut out the bitter cold air.
Stay warm out there!

I have to admit I just may be as addicted to fabrics as I am to wool
Yesterday, Larry left hunting and wouldn’t be home till late this afternoon. I had a free afternoon to do what I wanted, no commitments..no super to cook, no dishes.
So I played….all day. I had lunch out and headed to the fabric store. I wanted to see if they had Valentines fabric to make the girls outfits.
They had a pretty good selection & I fell in love with this print.
OWL’S !
On the way to the cutting table, other prints jumped in my cart….
Solid pink & purple for crib sheets to match the quilts
Honest I have no idea how they got there but, I couldn’t just leave them
Scheduled to be pillow case dresses with coordinating stripe trim
Tea cups!
The green was not an actual coordinate but, I think it works well for trim & pockets…then the butterfly and dragonfly prints just cried out to be princess sundresses.
Yes, I was alone unsupervised in a fabric store….which is just as addictive to me as a yarn store!
Last night I finished the Talullah dress and a quick cowl/headband.
Both are drying &I’ll have pic’s up tomorrow.
Have a safe and fun New Years!
Katie
