Stop talking and make it happen.

At about 2 am this morning, I kicked off 2014 by doing something I've never done before: publishing my first knitting pattern. I've made it a Ravelry-exclusive free download, found here.

Something I haven't done, however, is explain the name. Wawel, located in Kraków, Poland, is known for its Gothic architecture. The lace pattern I used in this cowl is based on arches, something very prominent in the buildings of Wawel.

Not that it needs saying when you see the author name, but I am of Polish heritage. Szczęśliwego nowego roku!
