Off the Needles: Shannon

My friend Shannon leftover Lion Brand Thick & Quick from her and  Gap-tastic Cowl
and was having trouble finding another cowl pattern that she liked. I thought it would be fun to design something for her leftovers, the funny thing is, she had the same idea! Check out her Carefree Cowl Tutorial

 
And here is what I designed for her... 


This was the original because I had the yarn in my stash, 
but I knew I wanted a lighter colour to show off the cables.
Shannon loves cables.

  1. It's beautiful! Almost like a chain link pattern. I definitely prefer the lighter version.

  2. I love both versions!! What a great cowl Jane! :) I'm drawn to the original, but the lighter version definitely makes me eyes linger on those cables.

    I also love your photos, that second one shows off the tweedy yumminess of the yarn so well! What's your secret?
