Knitting with handspun and lace weight held double

[roguecrafter]

I made a previous post about plying handspun yarn and machine-spun lace weight. Here is another thing you can do with handspun yarn and lace weight (or any weight): knit with one of the yarns “held double”:

Teaser work in progress photo of cream blue-faced leicester (bfl) handspun held double with teal, pink, and purple cotton lace weight yarn.

I have now woven all the ends in and finished blocking, but alas the light today is not good light for taking photographs. As I can’t show you the finished object in all its glorious splendor I don’t want to tell you, but can you guess? What do you think this is?

SUPER PRETTY *___*

I have no idea what it is; it looks too small for a scarf, and not round enough for a hat... a bag, maybe?

Thank you!

(it's a cowl, but good guesses!)

:D

(That's basically a really short scarf with the ends sewn together, right? |D?)

(In this case, it's a really short scarf with a button to close it. *g*)
