Tah Dah! My Honey Cowl is done!!
I cast on the intermediate size, or 160 stitches. And I used Patons Silk Bamboo blend on my new Knit Picks Options Interchangeable circular needles.
The honey cowl is one of my go-to/easy cowls. It’s always beautiful and immensely easy to memorize. Great movie and tv knitting. I used size 8 US needles. I used 102 yards of each color and my FO weighs 130 grams. The finished cowl is 34 inches in circumference by 7 inches tall.
The silk blend has a lovely drape and sheen to it. It’s just baby butt soft against my neck. And the two colors blend well together. Even the WS has a unique beauty to it. This is Stashbustin’ Project #43 for anyone keeping score.
I can just barely double it and wear it around my neck. This would not be a cowl for when I don’t want to mess up my hair. But on a blustery day this would certainly keep out the chill. I apologies for the model-less indoor photos. It’s winter and I’m at work during the daylight. So this is what I got, lol.
TGIF and Happy Knitting!




Your cowl is beautiful! I love the colors.
Thanks!
I can imagine how soft that is, having used some bamboo yarns for cowls and scarves this year. Add in the silk? Divine. And just the shot in the cold. Cowls are great and that’s a particularly lovely one.
It’s the only thing keeping me sane as I face driving home from work on icy roads today
Beautiful color combo. Even in pictures it looks soft.
Love of Cuteness
I love the stripes on that cowl! Gives it a nice, sporty look.
