Hope you like this, why don't you give them a try and let me know how you get on. 

I love the texture of this pattern it could be used in lots of ways to make other items.

I also started a new crochet project last night using SIRDAR  Crofter DK yarn, this self patterning yarn is working nicely for me.

I am mixing 2 balls of this wool in different shades. Check out more details on this wool at - SIRDAR

Not decided if I will make a cowl or a long scarf but I will share with you when finished.
That's all I have to show you at the moment so till next time.

bye for now
