Notes

Knit the superior cowl quite a while ago and it’s one of my favorite things to wear but always wanted one a little longer and a little more snug.

Enter Hedgehog cashmere lace! Holding it double may be gilding all of Monet’s lilies, but wow is it ever divine. Really like the diffuse look it gave to the speckles. Absurdly soft and just so very pretty. I didn’t have quite enough to make it as long as I wanted so faded in the Jade Sapphire cashmere (yes, the hedgehog is softer).

And just to gush some more, I frogged this yarn twice and it held up remarkably well.

96 stitches, long-tail CO, purl/knit/purl then began stockinette. 23” long.
