WIP- wimple

[Jan in CA]

That's pretty!

I though only nuns wore wimples. :thinking: I bet not like this one!

That was my first thought, too! None of the nuns I ever had wore anything other than black and white and boring.

cool!!!!

it makes me want to sing...

And underneath her wimple, she has curlers in her hair!!!!!!! I've even heard her singing in the abbeeeeeeeeeeey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My aunt used to be a nun, and she actually did wear curlers under her habit! She is, shall we say... unique?

Sadly I am not really a nun... I am officially an ordained minister, but that isn't why I've made the wimple. http://www.carylldesigns.com/wavy_feathers_wimple.htm . I am using LB Wool-Ease worsted weight in Wood color 232 which is really beautiful! I made my shitzu a matching doggie sweater!

I had to look at this since I've never heard of a wimple! I would've called something like that a 3 way scarf (tube that you can use as a wimple...but would've had to just describe how to use...I had no idea there was a real name, a scarf or neck warmer). It's really pretty!
