Prior to 2014, there was a candy called Misty Mints available here in Canada. These candies were pastel in colour and came in a dark green box. When I found some chunky, vintage,
halo-texture yarn at the thrift store, it reminded me of the colours of those mints and the packaging, and this cowl was the creative result. This is cowl #1 of three.
