Notes

Love this pattern and need a really cozy, drapy wrap for the fall. This will take forever to knit but will be worth it in the end.

I used stripes to merge the two colours gradually and kept taking it off the needles to try on as I didn’t want the length to be too long. I did ten rows of garter stitch as a simple border and cast off when I felt it was long enough.

I really like the versatility of it - can be worn several ways and the long edge doesn’t get in the way. Really like the cowl top which is neither too loose or too tight and keeps you cozy. The laceweight yarn allows for lovely drape.
