The second cowl in The Great Cowl kal is off the needles :) When I started it the colours made a nice little stripy swirl, but then suddenly changed and become wide and started to pool. I didn't like it when I still had the cowl on the needle, but I think it looks ok now. And it dosn't show so good when I wear it.
Pattern: A Very Good Cowl Indeed
Yarn: 1 skein Spunkey Eclectik Super DK, colourway Flannel. On Ravelry the yarn is listed as a skien of 100 g. My skein weighed 118 g and I used 104 for the cowl.
Needles: 3 mm
Size: 111 st
Notes: It's a pattern with two chart you can mix as you like. I just knitted chart A and made 9 repeats.
This is the perfect cowl for those cold winter days when I need to keep warm up over my nose ;)
I think it looks great! Those colors rock!
ReplyDeleteI like the way this yarn worked with the pattern.Very Pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love the way the colors swirl in that cowl. Great stitch pattern as well.
ReplyDeleteI know that people don't like pooling as a rule, but I seriously love how it works. Especially in your cowl. The colors are very different as well. It looks lovely on you!
ReplyDeleteSo soft and subtle--really just plain lovely. I think it looks like it will do its job of keeping you warm.
