Impulse buys can turn out quite nice. This really squishy and plump yarn with a gorgeous mixture of colours invoking autumn forests on a frosty morning made me want to make something nice and warm. So I turned it into a cozy little button up cowl with one of my favourite stitches, the beautiful, dramatically textured brioche rib, and it came out really toasty and comforting. Can be worn tucked under the collar of a thick coat, or over a warm sweater.
It also works up really fast (only took a long afternoon to make it) so it’s perfect for a quick present as well.
