Knitting a COWL

Postby Barbzeee » Thu Nov 08, 2012 7:14 am

. Just started knitting a Cowl. For two of my nieces ..I have to say." The size of these knitting needles makes it go fast however they seem to just slide out of the stitches too.." many times as I'm working on it I feel the needle hit the floor hahaha. Well I'll post picture as soon as I can get it to upload. LoL

Size knitting needle is 15. And the yarn is so soft and strange too me hahaha it's got like ripples in it. Hahaha. But again so soft.....

I'll be back.

God bless

That's beautiful yarn. I have zero skills in that department! Have fun.

Thanks all. Now I have completed cowl #1. And having a little disagreement with photo bucket. Still can't get pictures down in size. And now won't upload either...so now I'm working on #2 cowl. By the time that's done I may be able to post. HA!


I'll be back.

God bless

Can't wait to see pics! I'm posting the address to the pics of the scarves that seem to be very popular in my area. I've had 3 made. (wish I had the talent to do my own).

I use a big hook, maybe an H, I or sometimes a J. I never had any problem seeing what I just did, I tend to just feel it with my fingers. I've also used the krinkle type in a baby yarn as well. Its hard starting but after the second row its fine.

those ruffle scarves are supposedly VERY easy to do, many of the girls at work are making them and so are the teachers.
Its all in the special yarn. I have the pattern for it, but I had a hard time understanding the pattern but once it was
demonstrated, easy peasy. Thought I had the pattern in my purse but can't find it now, must have taken it out. Will have
to find it and post it.

wish I could knit - i bought yarn and needles here in Mazatlan a couple of weeks ago but can't figure out how to cast on - Bill finally showed me but that made me mad that he could do it and I couldn't so put the needles away - maybe I'll swallow my pride and have him show me again. Read a whole series about a Yarn Shop and that made me want to learn.
love the yarn you are using.

Carol, there are videos on Utube showing you how to cast on. That way you don't have to swallow your pride. :lol:
