Notes

Another cowl and another pattern by Patty Lyon after the Saugerties Tam.
I love the intricate cable and lace motifs. Very engaging when knitting and pretty to look at. It makes the cowl bunch and swirl rather than laying flat and straight.

Really only started on 11.1. , because my printer didn’t work and I wanted a hard copy of the chart; too cumbersome to use the electronic version; at least for me. But I am up and running and did the first 10 rounds of the chart in just one afternoon ( I had the 8 rounds of ribbing done already).

Bind off I bound off using a stretchy bind off on the purls and a regular bind off on the knits. I like the overall effect.

After finishing and blocking I discovered a miscrossed cable and used this method of duplicate stitching to fix it: https://youtu.be/pfSdK2dNWLQ?si=mINAJINJsuYwQlVk
