I made a beautiful cowl for Roxy that was taken from a pattern by Michelle Arellano. If you are interested in this pattern, you can go to her shop on www.daintyloops.etsy.com. She has such beautiful patterns and items that you can purchase. The cowl is made with Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Cozy yarn in cranberry color. Here's Roxy sporting her new cowl at work. Hope you like it!

I hadn't crocheted a scarf for my teenage daughter for the winter and spring is fast approaching. So, I made this very versatile cowl for her. It is made with caron simply soft yarn in berry blue. She loves it and I am happy. Spring is in the air and it's time to get cracking with crocheting little dresses and sleeveless tops. I will definitely share them with you as soon as they are done, so keep a look out for my posts.
My step daughter-in-law (Roxy) told me that I needed to do something for myself as I am always crocheting for others. So, I took her advice and finally made a cowl for myself. I was going through the etsy website and found so many beautiful scarves and cowls. There was one in particular that caught my eye and I wanted to try and make it. I made up my own pattern (as it did not have a pattern for me to follow) and I think that it came out beautifully. It was not as beautiful as the one I saw but I am very happy with my results. I went back to the site to see if I can post a picture of it along with what I designed but it was no longer there. Someone bought the cowl and I can't blame them - it was gorgeous!! Anyway, mine was made with Sayelle knitted worsted yarn in dusty rose. My daughter was the model for this and she did a great job!! There's so many ways in which you can wear this cowl. Leave a comment and tell me what you think of it.
I saw an amazing piece on dainty loops' website called chain circles. So, I decided to experiment in making something on a smaller scale for my teenage daughter. Whether you want a cowl, skinny scarf, or just making a fashion statement, it is a very versatile piece and can be worn in many ways. Here are a few styles in which it can be worn. I'm sure you can think of many more ways to wear it! It is made with caron simply soft yarn in berry blue.
