This Weekend...

Welter

This weekend's hat trick wasn't a hat at all - I made a cowl! This is the Welter cowl. I knit it in Blue Moon Fiber Arts Yaksi (60% Wool, 20% Silk, 20% Yak) in Grimm Green. This was my first time using this yarn and it's lovely. It's not a superwash yarn, but it's very, very soft while still having some structure and body. I would definitely use this again.

The pattern was straight forward and easy to knit. I cast on, knit the cowl and bound off all on Saturday. It was a great little project that gave me a quick finished object and let me test drive a new-to-me yarn.
