It survived the recent WIP/UFO review and in the last couple of weeks I’ve been making an effort to make progress with it … Here’s the latest status of the so-called Zigzag Cowl with only a few metres of yarn left to knit …
Being open-ended, it’s more a short scarf than a cowl. It’s almost 100 cm long, and – according to the pattern – was meant to have a buttonhole 6 cm from the end, in the middle of the row, but I didn’t like the look of it, so decided to continue without a hole and I will use a shawl pin to secure it instead, if needed.
Almost there … I’ll keep you posted!
Have you made good progress on a WIP this week? I’d love to hear all about it!

It’s so pretty! I love the color scheme.
I actually just posted a WIP update over on my blog today…it’s an afghan in a mostly pink and purple color scheme.

It is a lot of work, but the satisfaction I get from knowing all that came out of my mind and my own two hands makes it well worth the effort…even though it is time consuming. Happy knitting to you, too!

Ooh, I like that! I have something similar bookmarked for variegated leftovers.
This week I finished the endless garter square centre of a hap, perfect mindless knitting while sailing… not exciting but a big step forward 😳

Thanks! I’m really quite taken by the simple technique of alternating the variegated yarns into stripes – it’s interesting to see the different combinations appear … Some I like, others not so much 😉 I’ll definitely use this idea again! Looking forward to seeing your hap 😀
