This year, I made one.
That one took me an entire year to cut and sew after purchasing the materials. And about 30 minutes from start to finish. Oh boy.
The materials were purchased from Purl Soho and the tutorial is on Purl bee. (Materials are listed in the tutorial.) Super easy. Super quick. Pretty darn cute.

That's such a cute idea! I love pom pom trim. I might have to make one of these when the weather cools down here.
a well loved gift! gotta love that! It is adorable!
Great idea and I love the smile!
Very cute! I am in awe of anyone who manages any handmade Christmas presents, I am such a slow knitter but a most excellent procrastinator.
Wow, that's pretty! I have the Purl Soho pom-pom gingham scarf in my to-make queue, but I hadn't seen the cowl version. The cowl is definitely more elegant.
I think everyone has that ONE project that is drawn out for year(s)... but it looks so pretty now that it has been finished!
one that equaled a whole lot of happy!
I love it! In fact, I'm wearing a sweater with some of those pom poms on it right now!
I'd be as excited as your sister -- that's adorable!! I've seen that tutorial on the Purl Bee, and it's been in my mental crafting queue...the pompoms are just so awesome!
I love this, Leslie! You always have such great ideas...thank you for sharing them!
The smile on your sister's face made the wait worth every minute - she's a lucky lady to have you for her sister!
Happy New Year!

Did you use the sheer linen or the woven linen? And what colour? Perfect!
