Looking great so far and if this insulation doesn't keep us snug as a bug nothing will

SIMPLY CROCHET CHRISTMAS COWL...original design

Do you remember the Simply Crochet cowl I did for Christmas 2017, in a beautiful 
Debbie Bliss yarn

Well....still sorting through loads of samples I found the original design its been made in 3 colours of Wendy Aurora 



This was the original design from 2017, i adapted to the yarn requirements of the Simply Crochet Christmas Cowl project, 
basically its US terms here.....the Golden 3 row pattern made into a 6 square, triangle for the ends of the scarf, with a 6 stitch ripple, miss 3sts, for bottom turn, and 2dc, ch2, 2dc, for the top turn.


Love the strong Colours in the 3 balls of Aurora i used.
col.  5106 Ionosphere
col. 5103 Solar
col. 5101 Electrons

Edged in Ionosphere, using one of the edging stitch in the Simply crochet cowl pattern.
