MY notes

My gauge was smaller as I did not not like the look of the loose stitches with the larger gauge.

Width wise I was fine…all 100 stitches still fit comfortably around a 16” needle. The length, however, had to be adjusted. I did 2 more repeats of the baubles and another repeat of the stripe sequence at the end. This brought my length to 27” and after blocking, 31”

This was my first MKAL and I was sure this was going to be a hot mess. Am very pleasantly surprised. I love this cowl.
