I've been so busy the last several weeks. My husband was let go from his job as a food broker (not to worry, he found another one within two weeks), the cold is making my bones ache, and getting ready for Thanksgiving and now Christmas is tiering. I do have two fun trips coming up....a wedding in the Washington, DC area this weekend. Then a family bridal shower is St. Louis next weekend. Also, I still have to keep designing and filling orders for my business.
So, I've sneaked in a simple cowl.
Who doesn't need a quick knit, one skein cowl for the holidays? Actually, you can get two from one skein of Patons Lace. Yay!

Knit in the round with a k2, p2 ribbed edge, add some knit rows and some eyelet rows and you're done!
Two row repeat for easy memorization. Cozy up in front of the television or listen to your favorite podcast and knit away.
Lightweight and oh so toasty warm. I'm getting ready for tons of traveling this month and this will be so easy to wear and pack in my suitcase.
There's still plenty of time to whip some up for under the tree. So affordable for your hairdresser, teacher, secret santa, boss or hostess.
Something from you sock yarn stash would be gorgeous.
This one is a skein of Moonlight Sonata by James C, Brett. You can't tell from the photo, but there is tons of sparkle in this yarn. Perfect for the season and the coming New Year.
The pattern is $2.00 for the entire month of December and can be found in my shops on
Happy hump day,
Sheila

When working with fine yarn and doing a lace or eyelet pattern, your knitting will be much more enjoyable if you use really pointy needles.
I think that looks so soft and feminine. So pretty!
