Notes

I’m going to use up the rest of the mohair and make a narrower version of this as a cowl for MaryAnn. I have 3 oz of the mohair left so I will cast on 50 stitches (~63% of the 80 called for in the pattern).

Finished the knitting, all that’s left now is to graft/kitchener it together. Toyed with a three-needle bind off instead, but decided the “seamless” look was preferred (especially since I struggle with overtight bind offs and kitchener graft is easier to control for me).

Finished the seam during the big game. The cats (who live to inhibit Kitchener seaming) were oddly absent, helpful!

It just wraps twice, which is a goal of the recipient.
