This week, let's get in the Wayback Machine and visit another project from my Cookie A Sock Club days.  We got this lovely burgundy/plum yarn with cashmere in it, and it was so soft and luscious that I decided it needed to be around my neck instead of on my feet.  So rather than one of the sock patterns that came with the yarn, I knit a shawlette instead.
It is actually a rather small shawl, more like a kerchief.
Here's a closeup of the details.  It was a lot of fun to knit, but I haven't worn it that much.
That same month in the club, we also got the recipe for these cookies.  I can't remember what they were called, but they had a layer of bourbon caramel and a layer of creamy frosting sandwiched between deep, dark chocolate cookies!
I think I need to track down that recipe and make them again!!!
Oooh, your shawl is just lovely! The colour is beautiful, it definitely would have been wasted on socks!
ReplyDeleteThose cookies sound and look good, yum.
The cookies look delicious and the shawl is really pretty and delicate looking. Lovely work
ReplyDeleteNice cosy shawl.

ReplyDeleteThose cookies look fantastic! It might be time for my cookie break...
ReplyDeleteLove your shawl as well, a gorgeous deep purple that should go with almost anything.
I love the pattern of the shawl, very beautiful.
