LOVE & HEART

Happy Valentine's Day!
 
Inspired by the K Haring's artwork.
The pattern shows my love to NYC and Arts.
The style is updated version of 1960's Ski Wear.
(Remember the Andy Williams' Christmas show?)
It's cold out there.
Stay warm and be happy!

HOLY COWL?!


What's COWL?
 
COWLS originally refer to catholic monk's hooded garment.
In my favorite movie, "The Name of the Rose", those monks were wearing COWLS.

Today COWLS often mean tubular knitted scarves.
They are the winter staple among women and men in NYC.

Here's my version of COWLS.
Chunky hand knit with  antique duffle toggle.
It can be worn as Scarf or Hood.
