HI! Today I would like to share with you that I have knit a cowl for the very first time. A dear friend of mine suggested that we learn to knit together so I decided to take the plunge. She shared THIS very good video with me on how to make a cowl. I've never knit before and it was a bit of a stretch for me. I did take the stitches out lets say....a few times. :) I finally got the hang of it, and then it was like I just could't stop. Ha! I used the Red Heart Stellar yarn in Comet. I love the variation that it has. Plus, it's very soft. One of the best things is that you can't see the imperfections very well either. :)
It's wonderful to try new things, and I've already started another knitted cowl, but with smaller yarn and needles. It's a bit of a stretch for me..I must say that I like crocheting better, but it's a new skill I'm going to try to work on.
What about you? Do you like to knit or crochet or both?

I am not a fan of knitting I like crocheting a whole lot better but it looks nice. :)
Beautiful Jennifer. I used to crochet.
Well done! Those video tutorials are such blessings! I have not plunged into the world of knitting yet, but my daughter loves it. You have something fun to do in the new year!
Wow...you go girl!! I can crochet only and just a few things at that. I never can find time to sit down long enough to learn something new.
Your cowl is beautiful! Keep up the good work my friend!
Hugs,
Amy
I know how to crochet and knit, but for me crocheting is faster.
I like your yarn choice.
I think it is just wonderful that you are at least trying! It really looks warm and cozy. And the videos are so wonderful to have as a tutorial!
The yarn is very pretty! Keep it up as it will never be wasted in what you learn! Happy New Year, dear friend!
