This time I used a US 7 needle because the 6 was just too small for the robustness of this DK yarn (which is really more worsted than DK, IMO). I used every last yard of the blue and had only a couple of yards of the yellow and purple left. Won’t be buying this yarn again.

In both the 3rd and 4th instance of my making this cowl (made with the BT yarn), in order to have enough yarn to make 2 cowls, I made the second ribbing (cast off ribbing) in a different colour (colour 2 / cobbler) than directed by the instructions (which has both ends of ribbing knit in the same colour). Did the trick and looks just fine.
