Made by You Mondays

It's getting cooler, getting dark earlier (with the whole daylight savings thing), there's ice of the windshield early in the morning & a chill in the air. It's the perfect weather for bundling up, getting out those sweaters, hats & scarves. To go with the cooler weather, I've started making accessories. I'm working on a pink cowl, with organic cotton yarn (so soft & pretty) & I recently finished this black cowl, that reminds me of a mantilla scarf or women with scarves tied around their head, fifties & sixties style. I made this so that it can be worn many ways: up & over the hair, down keeping your neck warm or even around the shoulders. It has three buttons, one hand embroidered with a little peace symbol & two sparkly black buttons, that can be buttoned anywhere on the scarf, for a symmetrical  or asymmetrical look. SAM
