Katniss Cowl Version 2.5

So I'm finally getting around to posting pictures of this project. Last Christmas, I made this scarf/cowl based off the one that Katniss wears in the Hunger Games second movie. 

Then a little bit after Christmas, I decided that I could do it much much better, so I tried again, this time with grey yarn close to the one she wears in the movie. 

That one, version 2.0 turned out pretty good, but I am still not happy with the way it was turning out (I still haven't finished it ...) so I gave up. 

And then one night I was looking at some yarn that my sister gave me for Christmas last year and I thought to myself, this would make a pretty chunky scarf or something. So I started just playing around, and it turned out that I was making the Katniss Cowl version 2.5. 

Here is what I ended up with:

It doesn't look exactly like the one she wore in the movie, but I think its pretty darn close! I think that I learned a lot by making this one. I had figured out some things that I don't think I was doing right in version 2.0, and this one is more of one continuous piece. I even figured out how to shape the thing! I was pretty proud of that ... even though I am fairly certain that I did not do it the correct way.

But who cares, I ended up with something that I'm sort of proud of.

One of these days, I'll go ahead and finish up version 2.0 and post some pictures of that one.
