Notes

Finally breaking out my most beautiful handspun yarn for this project - it was a gift from edenknitty! The roving was Blue Moon Fiber Arts Superfoot in Coastal Yarns shop exclusive colorway “Haystack”. I love the way Eden spun the braid up so that the yarn is a gradient - it really shows off the pattern beautifully!

Cast on 46 stitches using US 7 needles and knitted cast on (on my gauge, standard gauge probably would take a US 9.) Following the worsted weight directions from pattern.

Making this into a cowl because I ran out of yarn. Going to seam the ends together in the style of the Yakima Ear Warmer.

Did 1 full repeat of chart a, and then rows 1-58. Did 1 full repeat of chart b. Was only able to do rows 1-58 of chart C before binding off, but I don’t mind an asymmetrical pattern on a cowl!
