For Christmas, my husband gave me a coat with coordinating gloves. Then he went to a yarn store while out of town in New York City and bought yarn for me to make a matching scarf! In the end I had enough to make a cowl and a hat. The yarn is Karabella’s puffy yarn, super bulky. I used size 9 needles. The cowl was loosely based on Purl Soho’s Mountain Capelet. I cast on 66 stitches, instead of their recommended 70. I also cast on 66 stitches for the hat.
I know this isn’t my best work – I have come a long way with my knitting in the last year. Probably because i have been so inspired by the IG knitting community! As my son-in-law mentioned yesterday “i belong to a very tight knit group”…🤣
