Time Out Cowl

My Time Out Cowl for Maybe Matilda's Crochet Along

Well, I did it, I learned how to crochet and completed my first project.  I'm really glad I joined up with Maybe Matilda, her tutorials were wonderful!  If you don't know how to crochet and are interested in learning, I highly recommend jumping over the Maybe Matilda and trying it out.   I also think the pattern for the Time Out Cowl is a great first project.  I completed it in just a few days and it is ready and waiting for the first cold snap.  I did put a little twist in mine when I stitched the ends together.  I just liked the way it lays better.

Crochet Along

Well, I did it, I went and joined Maybe Matilda's Crochet Along.  Not sure why I did it, as the only thing I can do is crochet a chain.  Hopefully I will come out of the experience unscathed and knowing how to crochet! 

Seriously, what hooked me was the chosen project, a cool cowl.  I've been looking for a knit cowl pattern and hadn't really found one I was thrilled with, so when I saw the Time Out Cowl and I loved it I decided to give crocheting another try.

So, I picked my yarn and ran by Walmart last night to pick up a N crochet hook, so I'm ready to go.

Wish me luck!
