Claire Cowl

Hello Friends,...Here's my take on Claire's cowl from the popular series Oulander. I'm obsesed with the books, and can't wait for season 2. 

Check it out in my Etsy shop.

MIA

Hello Friends...I know I've been MIA of late, but ah, life gets busy.  I have however, have had time to squeeze in some crochet time.  Here's a couple of projects that I've managed to finish off so far this year:

My first shawl!

So Far in December

Well hello there Friends...It's certainly been a long while!  I always underestimate the busyness of the holiday season.  Here's a quick round up of what I've been working on this month, some holiday related, some not.  Wishing all my readers a safe and Happy Holidays!

 

This is a men's/unisex cowl that I made for my hubby for his B.D.

More dishcloths as little gifts for the holidays for family and hostesses...sorry, not the best photo.

Cosy Crochet Cowl

Hello Friends...it's been a cold week up here in Toronto, but nothing to complain about in terms of the week our neighbours and friends (in my case family) to the south of us have endured.  Our hearts and prayers go out to them in their time of need.

I feel I've been going a bit cowl crazy lately.  They really just seem to be everywhere...on the streets and in all the stores.  We've been seeing them in the crochet/knit community for a few years now, but they have really taken off with the general public.  Here's my latest interpretation:

 

 

 

 

I wrote up a PDF pattern for this as well.  If you're interested, please visit my shop.  Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful weekend.

Crochet Cowl with a Stripe

Hello Friends...As promised here is the other crochet cowl I've been working on.  I love the contrasting colour in the stripe.  This would look great is many colour combinations.  The yarn I've been using is Red Heart Soft Touch and as the name says, it is quite soft and cosy.  If you're interested in making this cowl, I have the pattern listed in my shop. Take a look:

 

 

Easy Crochet Cowl

Hello Friends...Thanks for popping in.  I've been squeezing in some really easy cowl patterns during my busy schedule.  This one, if you can believe, I started in the summer and just got around to taking photos yesterday:

The pattern for this lovely cowl can be found posted on my Craftsy and Etsy sites.  Look for a variation on this one to come in the next week or so.

Cosy Cowl

So, I've been on an outerwear kick lately...a simple crochet cowl done in the round.  It's super bulky, cosy, yet lightweight...this one is going to be a custom order for my shop. 

Crochet Cowl

Hello Friends....I hope the New Year has been treating everyone well so far!  We still have the rest of the week off with the kids and my hubby is off work until the Wed., so it's been nice to just hang around, sleep in and spend time with family.

Before Christmas, I whipped up this colourful little cowl for a family member...I just love the yarn she chose. Just a simple hdc stitch in the round. It measure's about 28" length by 6" width. The yarn she picked out is Bernat Mosaic...Medusa is the colour:

Hello Friends...

Just wanted to share with everyone this pretty cowl I made as a custom order.  I love this yarn (Red Heart, Light and Lofty), it's so soft and chunky and super quick to work with.  This cowl couldn't be easier to whip up...I simply chained enough stitches to measure appox. 26" and hdc'd my way up until it reached about 8" wide.  I then added two matching buttons for easy closure.  Honestly, total time working on this project was no more than an hour.  What do you think?  A little warm for our coming summer, but will be perfect for the fall...
