Yay!!! I finished my convertible cowl cap. The end is open and you can cinch it shut for the cap or leave it open to wear as a cowl. I think I will wear it more as a cap. My only problem was making the tie--you take four strands of yarn and twist them tightly. Didn't reall work for me. I may just braid the tie. But I really liked knitting it. The yarn is Lorna's Laces Honor---yummy!
And something new is on the needles! Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in "Envy". I want to try to knit the faux cable pattern from the convertible cap. Thought I would try and see if I could make it work. See how it goes.....
very cool cap! Ann
ReplyDeleteThat is a very neat hat. Love the color of that Lorna's Laces yarn.
ReplyDeleteI have that cowl/hat pattern in my must do pile. Yours came out great.
ReplyDeleteYou might check Faux Cable Rib Socks by Jen Hansen; the pattern is available free on Ravelry.
Thanks Judy! I will check that one out. I have only knitted plain socks so far k2 p2 pattern. Thought I was ready to try something new.
