Off the Hook


Finished the first cowl of the season.  I have made it a point the last couple of years to make myself a new one each winter (sometimes I make things for everyone els,e and forget I need one). This year, I decided to learn a new stitch. I dug into this book and found a texture (SC/DC #3) that I loved! It is a beginner stitch, but I had never done it before and it worked up very easy and pretty quick!
The book can teach you the stitch (I feel like it might be wrong to put the pattern on here, and the book is awesome, so buy it)... but to create the cowl, I chained 102 and worked the pattern back and forth, not in the round, for 30 rows. Then, I joined the ends together. 

Have you been crocheting.. or knitting? I would love to see it... link me!
