This pattern was designed for the 2014 Chicagoland Yarn Crawl. It is free if you stop by the store.

If you haven’t worked with Be Sweet yarns before, you are in for a treat! Not only are their yarns great, they have a great story. Take a look at this video to see the Be Sweet women in action.

I started the cowl with smaller needles because I like the way a cowl lays when one edge is slightly smaller than the other. It also helps the bamboo edge to curl.

I used similar colors for the bamboo and mohair to emphasize the contrasting textures, but on my next one I plan to mix it up a little.
