Speedy

Speedy is a reversible cowl that looks like a racetrack. It’s my way of making something positive out of those days where one has to be speedy to juggle fifty things at a time. While we long for a cup of tea and a bath, Speedy can be something pleasing if one knits it (slowly, of course) rather than lives it.

True confession: I was actually making a blanket and I wasn’t speedy enough so I turned it into a cowl…
