Once I got the dress on the blocking mats I cast on for the matching cowl. While for the dress I started with skein 24, for the cowl I’m starting with skein 1, and will use skeins 1-10. The pattern calls for repeating the chart 11 times (vertically), and I may actually get that many repeats out of the remaining yarn, but whatever I get, I get. I’m on skein 3 and almost halfway through my third repeat, and will use as much of the yarn as I can. After the last patterned repeat 5 rows of garter are worked and then the bind off, so I have to keep that in mind as I get close to the end.
Pattern: Githa by Linda Marveng
Yarn: The Unique Sheep 4 Ply SW Merino Fingering
Needle: US 2.5 (3.0 mm)
