Yarn: Knitpicks Gloss in ‘Dusk’

Needles: 3.5 mm (US 4)

Mods: none.

Notes: I had a skein of KnitPicks Gloss in Dusk left over from 2007, when I was knitting Thermal. I noticed that the colour has been discontinued, which is too bad. I thought it would be the prefect skein to experiment with a bit more yardage, and see how the cowl looked- I used the whole skein (220 yards), and was super pleased with the results. It is like wearing a really stylish necklace. I loved the outfit I was wearing this day (we were at Niagara Falls), and the cowl really made it feel more polished for me. That, and I’m super in love with my vintage wicker purse (Ebay totally came through for me that day). I think I’m going to need a bunch of these cowls in different colours.
