Nicole in D.C.

Every October, I tell myself that I’m going to sit down, make a list of projects, and start working on holiday gifts for people. The past few years, only a few people have actually gotten their finished gifts because I, instead, find a pattern that I’m so completely obsessed over that I immediately knit it for myself and completely forget about finishing holiday projects.

This year, was no exception.

In researching projects for a friend’s birthday present, I came across the Marian Cowl and instantly fell in love.

With such thick, cushy yarn, it was a quick knit. I get compliments daily and plan on knitting one in every color of this yarn I have… and I think I’ve worn it every day since I finished it.

Now that there are just 11 days til Christmas, I should probably start working on people’s gifts I guess…
