This is a Secret test. Pictures will be added during the MKAL.

Pattern suggestion for needles: US 4 (3.5mm) 24-inch (60cm) circulars or as required to meet gauge.

I used an earlier worked cowl in this yarn as a swatch: link text.
But this time, I worked with wooden needles, Lykke interchangeables 3.25 mm (instead of the metal needles used in previous cowl).
I used knitting wire for blocking - one wire at each of the long sides (placed on the inside) and pinning the rest of the edges.
I did bind off with a stretchy Bind-off: (Lori’s) Twisted Bind-off, using a DPN 3.0 mm.

My gauge and measurements, with wooden needle 3.25 cm in colorwork:

Unwashed:

• 25.5 sts and 30 rnds
• Front, long side 1: 35 cm
• Short side 3: 57 cm
• Neck circumference 2: 44 cm Lower edge circumference: 90 cm

Wet blocked to:

• Front, long side 1: 66 cm
• Short side 3: 35 cm
• Neck circumference 2: 27 x 2 = 54 cm
• Lower edge circumference: 52 x2 = 104 cm

Washed and blocked:

• 25 sts and 28 rnds
• Front, long side 1: 65 cm
• Short side 3: 38 cm
• Neck circumference 2: 26 cm x 2 = 52 cm
• Lower edge circumference: 51 cm x 2 = 102 cm

My colors and yarn amount when starting:
Color 1 light blue: 52 g
Color 2 dark blue: 51 g 
Color 3 white: 54 g
Color 4 red: 48 g
Color 5 pink: 55 g  
Color 6 light grey: 52g

Yarn amount used total:
C1: (22 g left) = 30 g/ 105 m used
C2: (24 g left) = 27 g/ 94.5 m used
C3: (22 g left) = 32 g/ 112 m used
C4: (33 g left) = 15 g/ 63 m used
C5: (34 g left) = 21 g/ 73.5 m used, + 5 g effect thread (Bling)
C6: (24 g left) = 28 g/ 98 m used
