Knitted Snood





I have been working on a knitted snood for my sister to keep her neck and ears warm with the cool winter weather. I've been working on this knitted snood for a few weeks and I'm so excited to share it with you now that it is finished.

Underneath is a sage green rectangle with two white stripes and the words "Knitting for micro prem/angel babies" and at the bottom the words "Cozy Woodland Cottage Knits. blogspot.com.

I am not an affilate of Vanessa Cayton from the knitting niche or love knitting nor is this a sponsored post.  I just love this pattern by Vanessa Cayton at the Knitting Niche and wouldn't recommend it unless I have actually used them and love them.  Pattern used is by Vanessa Cayton. Green yarn bought from love crafts and recommended in case you'd like to buy some yourself.

About the completed project 

My sister asked me to knit her a snood to help keep her neck warm which at times can get quite sore from an accident she was in.  Also with the cooler Autumn weather to help keep throat and her ears warm as well when she goes for a walk. She loves this snood and said its perfect for keeping her warm and it's going to get alot of use out of it, sounds like I'm going to knit her at least another one of these. One in the wash or drawer and one on :-). I love how this design has a different pattern on it created by the mock rib stitch used.

I am so glad she loves this snood and said it is so snugly and lovely.  I love knitting for friends and enjoyed knitting this snood for my friend to keep her cozy and warm.
