Destroyed Cowl

I guess I'm into cowls now, this one should be finished up this weekend. It's a free Ravelry pattern here.I'm off to go dress shopping with DD, the oldest DS has just gotten wisdom teeth out yesterday, but is doing really well. The youngest DS came home with high temperature from school yesterday afternoon; seems to be doing ok, but still running a low-grade temp.

Chunky Cowl

While perusing the 'ville over the weel end I happened upon a free pattern for a chunky cowl. You can find it here. I used Lionsbrand Wool-ease Thick and Quick in a brown color-way.(Stash-busting here , so the label is lost! LOL) This pattern is fun and easy, took me all of an hour, maybe. Using the "P" hook is a blast, what a satisfying project.

Felted hat

My sister came up and visited me right after Christmas and wanted to try a felting project....so I decided to join in. We found a simple beret pattern on Ravelry...here. Here is my before picture:

Here is the after:


I used Paton's Classic Wool and it couldn't have been easier. Now I'm currently browsing more felting patterns!
