Cowls have been so tremendously popular with Craftybegonia's friends everywhere that I have decided to make them more often. Here is a super easy one that you can make in a jiffy for yourself or to give as a gift. It would also make a great charity project. It is somewhat lacy but still sufficiently chunky to provide warmth and feel cozy. Enjoy!

I want to thank these paper.li newspapers for featuring Craftybegonia. I appreciate you so much. Thank you!
I'm useless when it comes to needles (sewing, knitting or crochet!) but I'm sure lots of crafty folks will find this very useful! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThank you +Zsuzsa Karoly-Smith, I marvel at what other crafters can do myself with metal, glass and other things!
ReplyDeleteAll these cowls are lovely. The lavendar one looks quite warm - I also like the one with the three roses-it looks very lightweight!
ReplyDeleteThank you +The 3amstamper, I am very glad you like them. Enjoy!
