Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Funky, Classic, Cute, Casual


Materials

Lion Brand Homespun (Purple), Nashua Handknits Creative Focus Superwash (Purple), US #13 circular needles, Stitch marker, Crochet Hook G

What was your inspiration?

I was inspired by the two yarns. On their own each of the yarns had some appeal, but together they just exploded into this brilliant purple medley that kept me knitting.

What are you most proud of?

I am especially proud of the single crochet edging that I did using the Nashua Handknits Creative Focus Superwash. I think it tied the project together very nicely.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Be careful when you are joining the beginning round, so the stitches don't get twisted. IF they do get twisted, it's no biggie because you would have made yourself a moebius cowl, which is also very beautiful and useful.
