Two Coloured Cowl, by Kira

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, I made this!

This is the third thing I have crocheted.

I started crocheting last winter.

My first project was a pair of slippers, then a few wash cloths and now this.

Crocheting isn't something I like to fill my spare time doing.

It usually starts by me seeing a pattern or a piece of clothing,

and wanting to make it.

Now that my cowl is done I probably won't pick up my crochet hook until next fall. Now it will be plants, gardens,bees, pigs, chicks and chickens.

Time to get out in the mud!

The Purl Bee is where I found this pattern, I used an organic 2 ply bamboo from our local fiber store.
