Notes

General
Didn’t like the yarn at outset since it seemed very splitty. Turned out not being too bad during normal knitting however. Also, washing softens it up a bit.

Mods
Cowl: A Offwhite, B Light blue, C Dark blue, D Blue; 5 rows ribbing.
Mittens: A Offwhite, B Blue, C Dark blue, D Light blue; 20 rows ribbing, same stripes as on cowl, last increase on row 31, decrease on row 67+74+81, thumb decrease on row 22.
Headband: A Blue, B Offwhite, C Light blue, D Dark blue; cast on 84st, 7 rows of ribbing, same stripes as on cowl & mittens.

Timeline
2015-10-21: Started with the cowl.
2015-10-23: Finished the cowl and started the first mitten.
2015-10-25: Finished the first mitten and started on the second.
2015-10-28: Finished the second mitt. Not enough yarn left for a hat so I’m making her a headband/earwarmer instead.
2015-10-29: Finished the headband. Only soaking and blocking left.
