Notes

note to self… use stitch markers always when knitting ribbing and anything with even repeats. Added markers every 16 sts…for accuracy.

Bind off edge is a little tighter than the cast on edge. I used a cable cast on. Next time I will bind off in pattern with a larger needle.

3-26-2015 - Bound off last night! It’s ready for blocking. I’m going to soak this so that I can get the awesome drape of 100% silk!

3-25-2015 just 5 rows of ribbing left! I’m getting excellent advise from some Ravelers on how to block this beauty!!

3-17-2015 - Just finished a full pattern repeat. I love how this cowl is working up. That yarn tangle disaster was actually a blessing in disguise because this yarn wanted to be a Botanical Cowl!

Perhaps this can be finished in time for Easter.
Yarn was rescued from tangleville today! Yay!
