I never got around to taking any photos today because I was out running errands. I did, however, pick up several crochet and knitting magazines at Fiesta: Empezá a Tejer Crochet No. 7, Empezá a Tejer Crochet No. 8, and Dos Agujas Aňo 2 No. 10. There's always something interesting in those Spanish language magazines, whether or not I can understand everything in them. Thank goodness for international symbols! Whatever I don't get through reading the patterns in their original language, I can pick up by reading the symbols.
I also went back to Hobby Lobby and picked up a Boye size J 6.00mm straight afghan hook and a Boye H 5.00mm straight afghan hook. Not having to fight that J hook with a cord has speeded up my rows on the Cowl but it's still pretty slow going. (Oh well. It's the nature of the beast – the Tunisian crochet stitch. ) The Cowl is looking rather pretty in all those autumn-y colors.
