I have been busy knitting new projects for my Etsy store, but also thinking about knitting something for myself. The problem with something for myself is that I’ve knitted a few clothing items and they were hot messes. I mean, never-wear-in-public disasters. This has been heart breaking for me because I would love to wear my own creations. So I decided to start small and try this downtown cowl to practice patterns and sizing correctly.
So I am joining luvinthemommyhood’s knit along a few weeks late. I am in love with the blue satin yarn I picked and look forward to wearing this cowl in the fall. It makes me ready for cool mornings and football games already! I was able to get a good start on it this weekend during our road trip for a wedding. If this rain keeps up all I’m going to want to do is sit and knit. Here is my progress so far:
What projects are you working on? Are you thinking of fall or Christmas projects yet?

Oooh, lovely! The blue is so pretty :)
Wearing what you make takes patience and knowing what you like to wear. I'm figuring out that while I love a good cardi I have a hard time knitting one that I love...so this time I'm making a pullover.
As for Christmas...yes, I've already started thinking about it ;)
Yay..can't wait to see your cowl.
