Notes

Using a hand-dyed experiment in gradient dying.

  • This didn’t take long at all, and once again a very enjoyable knit. I think Brioche knitting has joy built into it. Nice to have expanded my skills in decreasing.

  • This yarn knit exactly up to spec with 25” circumference. It’s like a flower around your face as you wear it.

  • I did block it because I want a clean store sample and also moth proof it with some lavender in the wash. Was really careful not to stretch the cowl as it came out of the water and just patted it into shape on the towel, pulled a bit at the points, and let it dry without pinning. Length is 9”.

I think I’m ready to try something far more adventurous with Brioche knitting. Hmmmmm, what will it be….

You can learn more about the ranch and its animals from where this yarn came from here.
