Finished!

Insomniac Cowl

I finished my Insomniac Cowl!  The pattern itself is very straight forward and the knitting is easy.  Since I decided to use five full skeins instead of 12 mini skeins, I had to do some math to figure out how far to go with each color, but once I had done that, it truly was simple, brainless knitting.  The pattern has a textured stitch pattern to transition from one color to another, but I since I was making bigger color jumps, I chose to skip those, stay in Stockinette Stitch and stripe from one color to the next.

All of my yarns were Madelinetosh Tosh Sock and the colorways were Celedon, Cove, Jasper, Worn Denim, and Ink.  Celedon is the only one that is not discontinued, so this is essentially an homage to lost Madelinetosh colors.  I used 1,355 yards of yarn in total.

We're having a Cold Front here right now - it's down to the mid 90's for highs, and its in the low 70's in the morning!  It's glorious!  It will warm back up in a week or so, but we'll take what we can get when the heat breaks.

I have more knitting to show you, hopefully tomorrow!
