I’d you’ve been following my stories you will remember I accidentally made a giant hat with some bad knitting math….so I ripped out the crown and turned it into a cowl. Not a bad save, eh?

with handspun angora from some of my frenchie gals. This cowl is mostly from Poppy with a little bit of Morel and Gus. Words can not describe how geekily happy I am to have completed this project. It was a journey.
