Jesus replied, "Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life."
John 4:13-14
This cowl's inspiration came from the colour of the glacier water I seen while in Norway. We were in an area called Nordland, where the river was the most gorgeous colour of light blue/green, which we were told was due to the high amount of minerals from the glaciers that melted into the river. When we were there the mornings were a bit misty and cool, so this cowl would have been just the thing to wrap around my neck. It's easy and quick to stitch, making it a perfect thing for a last-minute gift too!! Yarn
