Gift Knitting

A Quick Knit!

This took me about 2 hours.  It was a clearance kit from Craftsy http://www.craftsy.com/supplies/fishermans-wife-cowl-kit-knit/4638  It comes with the yarn and a pdf of the pattern.  It's pretty simple but I've been wanting to knit it up for a while now.  It's going to be a birthday gift in March.
