Notes

Made a few modifications from Button Cowl #1. Same 60-ish stitch cast on, followed by a pretty substantial 2x2 ribbed section, and then seed stitch (instead of moss) and another ribbed section to finish.

Used the same method to add the little button pocket, too. Pulled up the required number of loops from behind the pre-existing stitches (which increased the number of stitches) and then switched from knitting in the round, to doing rows back and forth.

I also changed up the bind off, by using jennys super stretchy method (which uses a yarnover) two stitches, and then basic bind off two stitches, alternated.

Blocked gently (actually pinned it down and then spritzed it with a spray bottle) so it wouldn’t stretch out too much.
