Notes

The pattern is very easy to follow and very easy. Anyone who can knit and purl can do this - even utter beginners.

The yarns for this were a kind birthday gift from a friend. I wanted a super-simple but attractive cowl pattern that I could easily stripe in the Bi Flag colours.

7/12 - I’m nearly done with the pink section, heading to adding in the purple stripe.

8/12 - I’m adding in the blue stripe. The Indiecita is a lower weight to the other yarns, so I’m holding it double with some of my Debbie Bliss Fine Donegal, which is a blue/green/purple colourway. It looks pretty good combined!

11/12 bound off using Jeny’s Super-stretchy bind-off.
