Yummy neck warmers

I made these as gifts for Evie and Joe. Hope they like them. The light colored one is made with Encore, worsted -- the Coffee Beenz line. Used maybe 1/2 a skein, size 8 needle. The pattern is a free download on Ravelry. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/neck-warmer-8   

The blue one is the Casablanca Cowl made with a lovely fluffy mohair blend -- Multi Mohair by Marks & Kattens. I had some leftover after making Lee Anna a lovely scarf/shawl for Christmas. (see below)


The Casablanca Cowl is by Jill Deal. I found the pattern at a LYS but cannot find it on the Internet. Jill Deal states on her pattern to "Feel free to share the pattern with all that love to knit" but to credit Jill Deal, Jilldeal, Inc. Milford, PA. I will see what I can do to post a PDF in the next few days.

Lee Anna's scarf/shawl is a free download on Ravelry. I altered the pattern by not connecting the ends together and continuing the increases on the ends to make it a little bit longer.
