Recently I put down my sock knitting when I couldn't find my sock book (which I found 15 minutes ago). So I needed an on-the-go project in the mean time. I was getting a little tired of knitting scrubbies. Then I found the Vogue Knitting magazine with the cabled cowl pattern in it. Can you see a pattern here of me not being able to find things? I'm a mess right now. Anyway... I made copies of the pattern chart, took out my circular needles, and the green variegated wool that I had Kool Aid dyed last year, and went to work knitting another cabled cowl. Can I tell you that I much prefer knitting the cowl than the socks. Maybe its because of the circular needles vs the dpns. This will be a birthday present for my mom. She liked the one that I made for myself last year, and had asked if I could make her one to. By the way, I wear mine all the time right now. I love it.
P.S. This picture was taken in my parked car (with the engine off) while waiting to pick up my oldest son from school. I don't knit and drive, lol.
