Twisted Sister

 
The sassy one is 
knitting a cowl
in a soft camel hue.
Worsted weight.

80 stitches
Size 10 needle
K3, P1 TBL.

Round and round we go.
Purling into the back of the stitch
produces a ridge on the inside of the circle.

This accessory should be worn inside out.

To set the record straight,
none of children or grandchildren
like turtlenecks or garments that hug the neck.

But this twisted sister is knitting a cowl--
a poor man's fisherman knit neck warmer--
for the sheer joy of twisting.

As Chubby Checker used to say, "Let's twist!"

I love cowl necklines even with my short neck :)
Twist away!
