Not Knitting

Here is an item that is not knit by me. It was sewn by me.  It's a cooler for your neck or head when the weather is unbearably hot.  I made it because I couldn't find the one I bought many years ago on a trip to New Brunswick, and, being really desparate to cool off, I decided to make a new one.  It's a cotton tube partialy filled with a product called "Water Babies".  The 'Babies' are capsules that swell up in water, so they expand  in the cotton tube and hold the cold.  It was a lifesaver and kept me from keeling over while outside and even inside it made me so much more comfortable while the AC kicked in.
