Amerie - revisited
Amerie cowl July 2017 |
The photo doesn't show it clearly, but the cowl is doubled (50 inches in circumference) and 5 inches wide. It would not have required blocking, but I did it anyway to open the stitches a bit. Knit flat, a three-needle bind off (pattern uses a provisional cast on) grafted the two ends together.
The Yak/wool blend is soft, but somewhat splitty. Yarn details can be found on this earlier post.
The yarn color is so pretty - on my monitor it comes through as sort of a spruce blue. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWow, it is beautiful! This is going to feel wonderful draped around a neck! Nice work!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely - looks nice and squishy too.
ReplyDeleteI steer clear of splitty yarns. I have to say your results are just lovely Nancy.
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty. I've never knit with Yak myself but have "felt" a hat knitted with it before. So soft. That color is just beautiful.
