the cocoon...

i made for cori....

i made up my own thing but i'll do my best to explain
here if you want to make one.

first i cast on 95 knits. i started with dark blue.
i did 5 rows before i alternated colors.
looks like i did 14 rows of 5 to the opening. then
i cast off 22 stitches, continued, then cast off 22 more and
from there continued my stripes to make a smaller square.
when all was done i had a large square with a small square on top.
then i bound the bottom and tied it off and then stitched
the small square on top together to form the hood.
then i sewed on the wooden buttons and made yarn loops
and sewed those on to hook over the buttons. and that's that....
