Ziggy Lace Cowl and Headband

Happy Monday! I hope you had a good weekend. K and I worked on some projects, cleaned, and had a game night with some friends (thanks Julia and Lucas!). I also finished crocheting this pretty cowl/headband.

A couple of weeks ago I picked up some Pure Silk yarn at the Knit Nook's summer sale. It's soft and well, silky, and I just couldn't wait to make something with it. I decided to try out the Ziggy Lace Scarf pattern, which has been on my radar for quite a while. The pattern is quick and easy and looks super-cool.

I had all intentions of making a scarf, but over the weekend I decided that I'd like to be able to use the silk yarn for a couple of other projects. So, the Ziggy Lace Scarf instantly morphed into the Ziggy Lace Cowl/headband. I simply stitched the ends together to form a tube, which kept my neck warm over the chilly summer weekend (strange weather). Come fall, it will also work to keep my ears warm. I love it!
