I have had a very positive response from people when deciding whether or not to make cowls (that wrap around in a continuous length) rather than simply making scarves. So, this new one is going to be a cowl....I am making it slightly narrower and shall let you see the result. The red one (which was a scarf, but now has ends sewn together) is already sold, and has gone on a trip to Germany for the weekend!!.. I must say that wearing my scarf-turned-into-cowl is so comfortable and easy to wear. Last but not least, the coat is coming on well. I did have a rather large hiccup and sewed the sleeves on inside out (!) but I have now rectified that, and the coat actually fits better.....every cloud has a silver lining! Hey ho - this week is half term, so probably not too much time for playing .....
Your coat is a delight and love the way you have the small turn back for the collar. Must have missed a post re cowls but I too think they're a great idea having seen your red scarf turned cowl! One of these would be so handy for our Winter in a few months, I'll be watching!!
