Pattern suggestions, please!

Hi everyone!

I've been reading here for a while, & gotten a lot out of it, so thanks!

This week I made the trek from Portland, OR to Ashland for the Shakespeare Festival. In Ashland is a great shop called The Web-sters -- for knitters, spinners & all-around fiber-o-philes. And I couldn't keep myself from splurging. I now have two skeins of Kraemer Yarns Sterling Silk & Silver (fingering wt, ~840 yds total), and want to make something special with it. Any suggestions? I'm thinking of a shawl, but I'm not the best at lace & I'm not married to that idea anyway.

Thanks! I'll have to browse some cowl patterns on Ravelry. Do you have any favorites?

You can see a couple in my projects here:

I really like Nougat and the Darkside cowls, they were incredibly easy to make and ended up looking really fancy and nice.

Oooh, pretty, thanks for the link!

Mind if I Friend you? I'm another "watch football & knit" person, & even though I'll never be able to do all the projects I fave I'm always looking for new ideas.

I don't mind. I don't do much with the friending option on Rav, but don't mind other folks friending me. :-)

Thanks! :)
