My Cumbria arrived today! I’m winding it up and will be talking about both yarn and the Brenna KAL at my next guild meeting.

Eden Valley: 103.6g
Catbells: 104.9g
Hadrian’s Wall: 103.6g

September 22, 2016

I cast on with the Eden Valley as my MC, Catbells as CC1, and Hadrian’s Wall as CC2. I realized after my first few rows that I should have switched EV to CC1 since CC1 is in 3 panels with MC and CC2 having 2 panels each. I’m just going to wing it and end the linen stitch panel with row 4.

Eden Valley: 91.2g left
Catbells: 94.1g left
Hadrian’s Wall: 103.6g left
Needed 78 rows of Hadrian’s Wall in moss/seed stitch to reach 9inches.
32 garter ridges = 9 inches

Eden Valley: 91.2g left
Catbells: 93.9g left
Hadrian’s Wall: 75.5g left
Using Catbells instead of Eden Valley for 3rd section (mini bobbles).

I had finished the knitting portion of my cowl weeks ago, but medical emergencies halted the final steps of blocking and adding the buttons I envisioned. I’m pleased as punch with the result. Originally I was going to gift the cowl to a friend who had surgery, however she may be allergic to mohair. So I’m secretly “hoppy” that the cowl can be mine!
