I've started a new project tonight. This is a new design I'm creating on the fly. :) I'm calling it "Stars in My Eyes" cowl. It's a cowl (duh!) using the star (or marguerite or daisy) stitch and it's crocheted in the round. This first one is worked with Paint Box yarn (100% wool, aran weight) in the Tandoor colorway.

Here's a couple of WIP photos. That's Usna ignoring the whole thing. Pointedly. :)

I'm about halfway through round 5 here...



This is a close up of the pattern stitch...




I'm not entirely happy with the joins, but overall I think the project is turning out pretty well. And I can try a few different options to see if I can get the joins to be neater.

Next time, maybe I'll try a moebius variation. That could be way cool. And it might eliminate the joining issue.
