Notes

I don’t usually wear very thick cowls. However, I really like this lightweight, mosaic-patterned one, so I was happy to be one of the first to knit it.
Thank you again for this great opportunity, Natasja!

Yarn used before mosaic chart B:
MC - 25g - 101m
CC1 - 14g - 52m
CC2 - 8g - 34m

Chart B:
MC - 14g - 52m
CC1 - 15g - 56m

  • last upper edge …2g ~8m

Let me remind again that I have smaller needles and different gauge.

I do the wet blocking before the last upper edge and sewing together, because it’s easier to block that way.

My cowl is slightly smaller than the original because I knitted it with smaller needles/single ply yarn, to make it sit closer to the neck. I’d rather wear it under a coat, and the smaller size is more comfortable for that.

The model was my dear daughter with her kitten.
