Sunglasses and Cowl weather

By -



The Sunglass Hut has been around here forever. As I am one to lose them within days of purchase, I buy cheapo sunglasses. it has been wonderfully sunny this weekend. However, it is spring and by evening the temp drops fast. A cowl is just the thing. I read that Cowls are the new Scarf.

Sweet Cristina kindly models my first cowl. Malabrigo purples. And I love her sunglasses too.

Cowl addiction. I feel it coming. No going back. Gifts galore. Those who are cool wear cowls. Chilly that is. Hope you had a great weekend. Here's to the Hero's who made it so.
I'll talk to you in the comments. :)

Happy Memorial Day! You could knit a couple cowls out of terry - they'd be perfect for the beach.

I love that the sunglass hut looks like a former ice cream shop. Perfect way to attract customers looking for some relief from the sun. Great cowl!

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
