Warm love

I really should try to take better pictures.  This one doesn't do the project justice.  But anyway, I have finished my second January goal project.  It is the nyx cowl by Norah Gaughan.  It used 2 skeins of Manos del Uruguay Maxima that I bought using a Groupon from Spun a few years ago.  I have looked at it many times and couldn't decide what I wanted to make that would maximize its coziness.  I think I chose the right project.  I love it.

I now have mittens on the needles with the third and last skein of this yarn from the stash and am really looking forward to having matching winter wear for the first time ever!  And with a goal of January 31 completion, I'll get to wear it all this winter!
