It’s finally here! Today is the launch day for the Hyperballad Cowl, and I first mentioned here, with a quick photo of the smaller version. I wanted to design a neww cowl with lots of texture, and some fun cables. Everyone else thinks cables are super fun, right? Let’s take a look at some of the details of the smaller one, shall we?

Hyperballad comes in two sizes- one smaller version (above) that takes 1 skein of DK weight yarn that is a great small cowl that tucks into your coat, and the bigger version takes 2 skeins of DK and creates a drape-y, cozier version that has a bit more drama to it. Let’s take a look at the bigger version:

 The pattern is $6 (CAN), and instructions for both sizes are included in the same pattern, so it’s a bargain- and perfect for destashing a skein or two of DK yarn that has been languishing in your stash. Knit the small cowl in one colour, and the the bigger one in another- two totally different looks. Of course, I’ve knit mine in the same colour, so clearly I didn’t take my own advice. But it’s worth seeing the other finished versions that were test knitted- everyone did such a fantastic job!

And a shout out to Laura Chau, for the awesome tech editing!
