What was your inspiration?

a friend, who is a novice crocheter, needed someone to find her an easy cowl to make for her sister. i volunteered to be her pattern tester!

What are you most proud of?

i like the color combo and i think it's easy enough for my friend to handle, i like the patern enough to make another myself, in a soft bulky yarn sometime soon :)

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

the pattern is crocheted in the round, so with 90 stitches in the chain, make sure you crochet them loosely and don't twist them, in other words, take your time!!

I like it very much, The colors & the pattern. But I would also like a softer yarn. Well done, thank you for sharing.

i've already got a very soft camel colored yarn ready for the next one i crochet, though chances are it'll end up going home with one of my daughters!
