Knitting is a mystery; everything you do will change how your final piece will drape, look and fit. Your needle size, gauge and posture can have a huge effect on how your fabric feels.
This project was inspired by the dreaded dropped stitch. The Bellona Cowl is constructed in the round, with alternating cables framed within columns of dropped stitches.
I just bought the pattern and am going to make it with yummy hand maiden casbah!
Oh, that is such a pretty cowl!
Beautiful!! I faved it on Ravelry before you even finished
Very pretty!
Is there errata for this pattern? Or did I just knit it wrong the first time and figure it out the second time when I was actually paying attention to the pattern. I knit it with lichen dyed Little Wool Company Sportweight and it turned out Beautiful!! What a lovely pattern!
