Better Late than Never

Well, it's about time. After ripping out the ribbing almost a month ago, I finally decided to finish my Somewhat Cowl. She's mighty pretty.

I'm being fussy but I'm still not sure about the length. However, when I made it longer, I didn't like the way it sat on my hips. Also, the bind off is still tight but I'm going to live with it for awhile and see how I feel. I have plenty of yarn left over so I'll figure it out later.

So sexy!!

  2. If you continue to be dissatisfied with the bind-off edge's tightness, in future you can use a size or two larger needle for the bind-off of projects. That's what works for me.

  3. Deena, I think it looks pretty. I love that color. I'm going to have to use that yarn. When I bound mine off, it was very tight also. I rip out a few inches and went up a needle size in the ribbing and bound off with the next size up because mine sits right on the hip.

    It's beautiful! Orange is one of my favorite colors, so I just love this.
