Texture Cowl



Yesterday I shared my Ishbel progress, today I wanted to give you a peek at what else I have been working on. I've been selling the Breckenridge Cowl online since the beginning of December, but have not been able to make it available for wholesale purchases yet. The main reason for this is because I sell it for so cheap online. After printing costs, it wouldn't make sense for me to sell it at wholesale prices.



Here is my solution: two patterns on one sheet of paper! In order to offer these to local yarn shops, and still keep my low online prices I will be selling the Breckenridge Cowl together with the 'Texture Cowl' (final name is yet to be determined). Both cowls are similar in construction, using the same weight of yarn and needles.

Both of these cowls were introduced in my Etsy shop when I opened, so although they may be old news to me- they are new for you! So, here's me in all my dorkiness modeling the Texture Cowl.

Pattern should be available on Ravelry by this weekend. The combo Breckenridge Cowl/Texture Cowl pattern will be available for wholesale orders by next week. If you happen to be in Detroit this weekend to see the Yarn Harlot speak at the Library- I should have print copies hot off the press!

  6. I love it. Can't wait to make one for myself! And yes you are such a "dork"... lol Great shots, seriously. Does Joe take the pictures? You should at least include a pose where you are staring directly into the camera...

  9. Beautiful cowl and lovely color. Haven't made a cowl yet but have been thinking about it (my list of projects "to do" just keeps growing) and will make this one a "most definite".

    P.S. you do not look like a dork!

  10. So lovely! This is the perfect time of year for cowls, too. It's getting too warm for a full scarf!
