I've been on a huge cowl kick lately. I stop paying attention for a few minutes and I'm knitting another one. I think it's because I've been hand dying single skeins of yarn and it's hard for me to find one skein wonder patterns that I really like. But, I've never met a cowl I didn't like.
So recently I completed another cowl. This one is a smocked stitch cowl called Ziyal. The pattern is here on Ravelry. This is the first time I've ever done a smocked stitch, and it is fantastic. It looks really complicated and cable-like, but it is so much simpler and faster than cables.
I used one hand dyed skein of Patons Classic Wool Worsted kettle dyed with broken Wilton's black icing coloring.

I've been knitting a lot lately since I've been a little sick. I hate being sick but it gives me a great reason to be knitting and crocheting as much as possible! :)
