Die Koralle und das Meer cowl

Die Koralle und das Meer cowl

I was lucky to be able to test knit this cowl. I think I've mentioned it before. I had so many color combinations I wanted to use for it, but either the yardage, or the thickness of the yarn was not there. Mostly I didn't have enough yardage though, because as it turns out, you can easily knit it with any kind of yarn, because it's easy to adjust the stitch count to your needs. Maybe next time.

It was an easy and fun knit, and it warms the shoulders wonderfully. The pattern is now available.

Why does the name of this cowl remind me of Freddy Quinn?
