Something about cooler weather makes me want to knit.  I know, I know…I’m probably not the only one that sees knitting a cold weather hobby.  All that wool on your lap during the heat of summer isn’t all that inspiring. But the cool weather makes me think of hats and scarves and mittens. 

As I was cleaning up my sewing space Friday evening, I came across my bag of leftover yarn.  Wanting a scarf or a cowl, I did a pattern search on Ravelry and came across the Honey Cowl

It is knitting up fairly easily so far – the pattern is simple and there is no counting involved.  Just repeat the pattern until desired length.  And I love this yarn, the Malabrigo Rios.  Its soft, squishy and an absolute dream to work with.  Love it love it love it.  I have one skein and a little extra leftover from my Little Liesl.  I’m leaving midweek for the East Coast for work; with the plane rides, I should have this finished by the time I return! Yay!
