for Claudia Hand Painted Yarns 2010

9218 High Hampton Cowl

You will throw out every single one of your Hermes scarves. You will knit one of these every sixty to ninety days for the rest of your life. You will become more of a colour master than any Impressionist; a more sought-after benefactor than any lottery winner; and become a more serene and relaxed human, too. This is vast amounts of knitting in the round, with a couple of short row turns. Pick two different colours of the Silk Lace and knit them together as one (gauge is given with the yarn doubled like this). The result is a cowl that delights every sense, especially if you keep it in a sandalwood drawer.
