Yarn Along

I have been a busy little knitter this week.
I am knitting my 2nd Honey Cowl and since I am familiar with the pattern,
I am breezing right through this one.
I decided to make this one bigger, so I cast on 220 stitches, the last one was 110.
I think this one is going to be too big, I probably needed to cast on something in the middle.

 We went to see the Cherry Blossoms
and since we missed them, you can read all about that here,
I have been looking through this book I bought several years ago.

This year, I purchased this Cherry Blossom scarf...
the perfect accent for viewing the pretty blooms!

  7. My students that have knit the Honey Cowl have said the same - the small was a bit snug and the large was too big. Somewhere in the middle is very good!

  13. I have had that pattern in my ravelry favorites for oh so long but never had just the right yarn picked out for it! I don't know f there's such a thing as a too-big cowl; the bigger the cozier I think! Beautiful project!

  14. Your cowl will be just nice and cozy being bigger, for those cold snowy days!! I love it when you learn a pattern and are able to knock it out after that :) Your scarf is a beautiful accessory for viewing the blossoms, such a bummer you missed them in their peek of blooming.

  18. Usually when Spring arrives I put away the yarns and needles and hooks. Then, the snow and temperatures fall again, confusing the birds and the daffodils.
    So, here I sit snuggled in front of the wood stove under my not-quite-finished
    afghan with a good book and a few blogs. Looking forward to seeing the finished cowl. Aloha.
