Notes

Inspired by a forthcoming trip and the great dark denim shade of my yarn.

March 5, 2016

Swatches are for sissies. Casting on feverishly to prepare for binge-watching House of Cards Season 4.

Oops, it took a long and boring trip to finish this cowl! The result is very nice altogether, I love the picot finish, otherwise the pattern was even too mindless. 5 balls would have been quite enough, hadn’t I made it 10.5” long/wide. Knitted until I just didn’t feel like working on it anymore.

Como is extremely soft, you can easily break it by pulling. Read: it would never last more than one week in a pullover or such.

Finished size: 160 cm , 26 cm wide.
