Notes

03.19.13 Largest size needles I have is 9, so I cast on 89 stitches. It looks like it will fit, but be snug. There is only 90 yards in my skein, so it may be a bit short too. We’ll see. The color is pooling into stripes right now, with a slight spiral.

03.26.13 Finished except for weaving in the ends. The colors are a little “out of the bottle” for me, but the pop and vibrancy of the colors should work as an accessory (I hope). This cowl is just barely big enough to fit over my head, but very warm.

I used a long tail cast on, so when I got to the bind off, I used EZ’s Outline Stitch Bind Off to match. This video tutorial on YouTube was very helpful.
