Plants and Rags

Just a quick update before I make the mad dash back to school. My life is a commuted existence... Well, earlier in the week I mentioned that I already had another copycat knitting project in the works so here is a sneak peek. This is the very beginnining stages of thick and lovely YOKOO-style cowl in winter white.


On the day I epic thrifted those two pairs of Doc Martens, I also found this fish sweater. I am in love.

Love the jumper! And my boyfriend said he would try making a yokoo-esque cowl for me too (he's far more adpet with knitting needles than me...), I hope you post about it when it's done! xxx

Smart move to save the sweater for a different post, as it is truly epic.
Can't wait to see how the cowl turns out.
BTW, I am always truly honored when I see that you have taken the time to comment on my page. xo

I have caught the knitting bug lately... a cowl sounds like my next project-hopefully spring will come instead :)
I love the fish sweater, great finds from thrifting can make my week!

I've always wanted a cowl YOKOO-style! Even though things are heating up a bit here in SoCal, they look just so damn comfortable and amazing. Good luck making it!

the design on your fish sweater is literally- THE logo on the sign of a bait and tackle shop down the street from my house! SO WEIRD!
