Loop’s Daria Cowl

by Becky Elmuccio on April 20, 2011

Pattern: Daria Cowl
Yarn: Imperial Stock Ranch Bulky 2 Strand in Indigo Heather and Imperial Stock Ranch Columbia in Wild Iris
Needles: US 10 Circulars

I saw this project on Loop’s website a couple of years ago and when I was at the store last winter, I grabbed the yarn I needed to complete it. I love Loop! It’s a gorgeous store that I am lucky to have nearby. The yarns are all high quality and so is the staff. It is my favorite yarn store in the area and I look forward to each trip that I take to get yarns and explore what they have in the store.

The Daria Cowl is the project that I was working on the day that I went into labor. In fact, all that I had left to do was bind off. This is a fact that would leave most knitters frustrated about being away from a project for a few days. When I got home from the hospital, it was something that I took care of in about a week. We know that I like to cross things off of lists, and this was on one of those lists. I am trying to manage my knitting projects better, and I am vowing not to have any UFOs in my project list by the end of the calendar year. That Minimalist Cardigan that I started 4 years ago may need to be ripped out and restarted, but I will finish it. There is also the Tapestry Cowl, a Market Bag and several baby projects that need to be organized and created. I am happy to say that I am getting my mojo back and have been knitting the last few nights after I put the Tomato down to sleep for the night. Baby bibs are being created for her and I am having fun relaxing at the end of the day.
