Notes

Super easy knit - followed pattern as written. The Moco (Mohair Corriedale) wool is light and very warm, and I like how its subtle halo lends itself to this cowl actually being cloud like. slightly_smiling_face I recommend the project using yarn with mohair content - it will make the cowl bigger, fluffier, but not heavy, which is what I’m seeing with other Wolkig projects - thick & droopy.

However, I didn’t like how the edges on each end were curling, so I hemmed them in with a whip stitch. Will take photos on the weekend as there’s not enough light by the time I get home from work now. Yay! Sweater weather!

Meanwhile, four years later on the shortest day of the year…

This project is still beautiful and aptly named. Doesn’t it look so romantic? I also have a mannequin now who’s a great help with these photos. We’ve named her Grace.
