Ice Queen Cowl

Today I received an email from a wonderful lady who has knitted the Ice Queen Cowl from Knitty on-line magazine.

It's made from hand-dyed Happy-go-knitty merino/silk lace weight.

I think it looks amazing!!

Oh...silk!

I have waited and waited and now it has finally arrived: 100% mulberry silk!

It's luscious and soft and the sheen is just amazing. It has that typical smell of pure silk.

I will dye it on Friday. Aqua? Denim blue? Beetroot? Dark red?

Exciting!

Or for yourself.
