Having fallen in love with ALL Miss Babs colorways, I really wanted to combine 2 different ones in this piece. While knitting from the top down remember, you will be turning the cowl neck down toward your knitting to wear it. In other words, you will be looking at reverse stockinette when you begin the cowl neck. There is enough yardage in 2 skeins of Miss Babs K2 to do any of the sizes listed AND make them longer if you wish. I used about 10 ounces for the medium size that stops just above my elbow. Several of our customers at A Likely Yarn have knit the large and made it longer, using almost all of their 2 skeins of K2.
