I did get the wrap stitched together and here's the result
After this, of course I found another woven panel, in my knitting bag, why, why, and I may add that, too. But meanwhile here's where we are. It drapes nicely, and because it's stitched, with a neck opening, it stays pretty much put.
And outdoors we had a bit of snow, more of a gesture than a storm, but that's fine.
More to come, probably. Weather last week and this has kept me away from the new knitting group, so I hope they keep it going till I get there.
I went out yesterday to start my car, to be sure it would start, in case this turned out to be a snowplow event where my car would need to be moved to clear the lot. But it turns out it's just a brush your car off event.
Happy day, everyone, remember to your kitty you're a can opening genius. Or a can opening mechanism.
The wrap is lovely. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteIt's snowing here again (again), and I can report that, so far, the highlight of not having a vehicle is not having to extract a vehicle from snow after every storm.
ReplyDeleteNo vehicle??
DeleteI haven't had a vehicle since October, when the faithful Highlander was sent to permanent pasture.
DeleteThe cowl/scarf is lovely! You did a great job of it. The close-up of the weaving is perfection.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're not snowed in.
Thank you ! The snow is enough to look nice. That's about as much as I need.
Deletewe're having the same weather albeit without snow...35˚ - 16˚. brr. it's going to be a sunny day though.
ReplyDeleteI never thought of Texas as having winters till recent years and the news about the grid. Stay warm, and thank you for looking out for those feral kittens and mom.
DeleteThe scarf/cowl turned out perfect! You have about the same amount of snow as we do. The big storm passed us by. I have given in and accept I am a servant to cats. The many dogs I had in my life are surely howling, with laughter or dismay, I don't know.
ReplyDeleteCats wear you down that way! I'm glad you're not under snow.
DeleteThat cowl is very attractive! You remind me I should give my car a start too, although it has been in the (unheated) garage. You never know in winter.
ReplyDeleteSince all our parking is on the street and I don't drive every day, I need to run it a few minutes when I remember. I do have a jumper battery kit, if I need to boost it.
DeleteThe “cowl wrap thing” is beautiful, classy, practical, and very cool. Maybe you should come up with a name equal to it. Miserable weather here right now, too. Cloudy, windy (wind whistling through the building), rain likely soon (we’ll take as much as we can get), and the temperature is... 63F. Brrrr!
ReplyDeleteI haven't come up with a name yet, since it only happened yesterday. But I need to think on that. Like you, I'm just not a fan of cold windy drafty weather, either.
DeleteLovely cowl. They are such a comfort to wear in winter, I don't know why we don'[t see news folks all seated wearing one.
ReplyDeleteThey're under hot lights, also they're supposed to display skin, ew!
DeleteYour cowl looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteI’m glad you didn’t get snowed in. Although I think, like me, it wouldn’t bother you too much. We have more than enough to keep us occupied
Plenty to do at home. I just get itchy needing to walk.
DeleteWinter has arrived in Southern Ontario, it's nippy cold around here now!! All the locks are frozen on the mailboxes, which is a pain!!
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting problem. Can't get at your bills!
DeleteIt's a beautiful wrap! Thank you for sharing how it looks on. Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm wearing it again today. I think it's a keeper.
DeleteI might have to give the cowl wrap a go. Scarves are all well and good but they dangle and get caught in things. Your weaving is beautiful. I can't wait to get my looms out.
ReplyDeleteDo you have room to get out the rigid heddle loom? I'm quite pleased with how the weaving came out.
DeleteNot until we move, Liz. I need a dedicated area that I can keep the cats from.
DeleteI "started" my car the other day, to keep a dentist appointment. Dead battery. I still haven't done anything about it.
ReplyDeleteThat time of year.
DeleteVery pretty! Please stay warm.
ReplyDeleteThat's the plan! You do, with your Arctic blasts.
DeleteThe cowl looks good! Glad the snowpocalypse didn't come. :)
ReplyDeleteWe got lucky again. That's several storms have just swept by us.
DeleteI think that is a mini wrap.
ReplyDeleteThank you. That's better than my version.
DeleteLovely cowl. Keep warm and safe.
ReplyDeleteThat's today's plan. Again.
DeleteGreat repurpose of the panels that were originally planned to be a skirt. It makes a beautiful scarf and likely is toasty warm too.
ReplyDeleteI like their final destination. Warm and easy to wear
