As I said good bye to Labor Day... I said hello to autumn. Ok, really it's still like 80 degrees here
in St. Louis. Our weather rebells against normal weather patterns and
in St. Louis. Our weather rebells against normal weather patterns and
randomly does whatever it wants. Tomorrow it could snow. Truly - ask anyone who lives here ;)
I digress - ok, so speaking of fall - I finally got around to making something that I totally wanted to have last fall - but never had time to make: a Cowl Neck!
Until last year I always thought of cowl necks having their home with a sweater. I'm not a turtle neck kind of person so when I saw a girl in a magazine wearing just the cowl neck I was in heaven. (I might possibly be the only person that didn't know about them but I'm so in the loop now.)
I can't wait to wear it with a t-shirt when the weather gets a little colder!
The Cowl Neck is approx. 66" total length & 7" wideThis particular one is a wool / acrylic blend.
If you are wanting one I can easily make it in any particular yarn type and in any color.
Cowl Neck: $40
This price is based on acrylic blend yarns regardless of color. For wool yarns please add $5 for supply cost.

I've had a lot of requests for hats lately - children's and adult's alike. Here are some samples that I had a blast making.
This one is an ultra soft chunky wool that I've done in a cable pattern. Usually cable patterns are done in knit, not crochet, however I think it turned out beautifully - the texture of the wool is great with the textured pattern.
Don't you love the ear flaps!The red hat is a chunky acrylic blend that I did in a Swedish type pattern.
I've officially named it my "Heidi Hat." It's a 0 - 3 month size and even though it's only the beginning of September I've put it on L-bug numerous times already!
The white beanie hat is for my cousin K and her little one EG. It's a simple single crochet pattern, but what I like most about it are the pinable details!The chocolate flower with the fabric button center has a safety pin that I've sewn onto the back so it can be removed.
Here's a picture of a Rose Bud detail pin.The details can be pinned onto anything - a coat, a sweater, a scarf... the possibilities!
This next hat is in standard acrylic yarn that I did in a 50's-ish type of pattern. It has a beautiful
"butterfly" detail with a slightly upturned brim.
Children's hats: $20
