Lovely

A gorgeous early-blooming daylily from my mom's garden.
A start that she gave me last year.
Lovely,
 just like her!
Happy Mother's Day!

Granny Stitch Cowl

I finally finished something crafty!
I made a warm wooly cowl--now that we are having summer-like temps I thought I would finish this for my winter wardrobe--ummm--just a little out of step with the season I think? :-) 
I love the colors in this yarn.
It is Liberty Wool, color #7865 from Classic Elite Yarns.
The technique for this cowl is from Meg, HERE and Attic24, HERE.
The stitch is from Attic24's Granny Stitch blanket and the cowl idea is Meg's.
It is long enough to go around my neck twice to be snuggly warm.
