I hope you guys aren't sick of scarves yet. My sister in law had the cutest cowl on at Thanksgiving and although she bought it, I knew that I could find a pattern to make it myself. So off I went to etsy where I found The Plumb Giraffe and her Elizabeth Bennet Cowl. It looks so much like my SIL's scarf I had to try it out.
I had this super soft steel blue yarn I had gotten to make a baby blanket when I was pregnant with my first, yeah, like that happened. But the yarn was perfect for this cowl! I could not believe how quick it went, and it was so much fun! I learned a couple new stitches (I'm a pretty basic crocheter, so if mine turned out yours will too!) and was done in just a couple hours. Really an experienced crocheter could probably knock this out in an hour.
I will definitely be making more of these in several colors! It's light enough that you can wear it in spring so I'm thinking a bright yellow. Head over to The Purple Giraffe where you can get the pattern for $1.99! Seriously, a steal. Grab some t-shirt yarn while your there, how cool is that!

Thank you for sharing this and all the wonderful creations you showcase! I'm a fairly recent silent reader of your blog and I enjoy it very much. I just had to pop in and thank you for the link, I've just ordered the pattern. Also, I love that you are crocheting, one of my favorite hobbies. Keep up the great work and have a wonderful day!
