All finished with the Serena Cashmere Cowl

Woah, I look like a redhead in this photo. Crazy.

Overall the Serena Cashmere turned out a lot better than I thought it would! It does feel soft, just not as soft as some of the fibers that I work with. I am such a yarn snob, lol. I am in love with the color! I like green in general but this shade is beautiful.

Although, maybe I like it because it's just so cold I don't care about style, stitching, anything else, hahah. I'm not sure if I am going to keep it or try selling it on etsy. Or I could give it to someone as a gift. I am not sure if the pom poms are very sturdy though. I would hate to have them fall apart on someone. That is probably a good reason to keep this piece.

Woah I think accident outside. I've been hearing sirens for the past 10 minutes. Hmm....

New pattern from Luxury Yarn One-skein Wonders

It's official! I have decided on a pattern, drumroll please, my next project will be... the Serena Cashmere Cowl!

It certainly looks cozy and I have some cashmere that should knit up well on sz6 needles. I know! I said that I would try to knit only with the suggested yarn but this is the perfect size and I've been looking for a piece to use this yarn for a long time now. I will gauge it first. I promise.

The only thing I am not sure about in this pattern are the straps. I mean why would you willingly put something to choke yourself with around your neck? It just seems strange.  Also, the pom poms at the end at not really my thing. Pom poms on hats are A-okay, but I think its strange when they appear in other places. It might be fun, I'm reserving judgement for now.

Beanie from a new pattern

This beanie is from an absolutely new untried pattern that I found on the net! I really love the cute spiral star it creates on the top. I am also thrilled that I finally found a pattern that I could use for my two skeins of cashmere yarn. This hat is so soft! Soft and warm!

Today my friend and I are making pies for Thanksgiving. I am going to document the process and share it with you, my readers! I hope that you like pumpkin pie.
