Notes

This took me forever to knit but it was so worth it! First off, this yarn is to die for. It’s just so soft and the colour is just amazing. The FO shots are all pretty accurate in terms of colour; the first three are in natural outdoor light, and the next two are indoors in lamplight. The colour is definitely more vibrant in the light of day, but the deeper tones in artificial light are equally interesting. Not that I’m surprised - TFA yarns are crazy amazing with colour. :D

The pattern was a lot of fun, and the construction of this cowl is super interesting. Of course, I’m not sure how the best way to wear it is. There’s a lot of fabric! So far I think a double loop with the point in front is best (as evidenced by the pictures) but maybe I’ll think of something else when it’s colder!
