Luck of the Irish

 I bought this yarn at Knotty by Nature while visiting Victoria last March.  If I lived on the island this would be my go to yarn shop!! Tucked on a corner of a quiet neighborhood this shop is welcoming even before you enter through the doors.  There is a table and chairs just outside the door inviting any passerby to have a tea or coffee while kitting or reading a book in the sunny afternoon. I picked the vibrant green yarn and decided to show off my Irish heritage in a bright Irish cowl. This is the third cowl I've made which is loose-fitted and knit in the round. I like this feature in the cowl because it won't slip off.  Among Cedars is a well written and easy to follow pattern, one I would suggest to my fellow knitters. Pattern: Among Cedars Cowl by Erin Randle Yarn: Knotty By Nature Hand Dyed Sock Colorway: Green with blue flecks Needle Size: US Size 4
