Notes

Lovely pattern, lovely yarn.
It is very warm & soft with a good firmness. I can wear it twisted around my neck, use it as a hood and it really stays narrow to my neck. Good qualities to get me through Berlin winter.

Swatch: 31 st = ~20cm in hourglass pattern.
CO: 186 st (gives ~130-140cm circumfence)

I would recommend to knit the border otherwise the fabric rolls in.
The last picture shows the other side of the fabric. I love both sides!

And yes Leslie, so good that you give the hourglass pattern to work it flat for swatching :-)
