Cozy Worm

Cozy Warm

In order to keep this Little Worm cozy when outdoors as well as in, I knit her a moebius cowl. It is photographed with bunny and gingersnaps because, sadly, my Little Worm hasn't yet figured out the potential benefits of this cowl and so far refuses to wear it. Maybe I'll pull it out the next time we're out in the cold, so that a Shivering Worm can become a Cozy Worm and still make snow angels.
