This blanket started out with the yarn, four skeins of Rowan pure wool worsted in (oak, hazel, rosy, and toffee) from a LYS sale a couple years ago. It's kinda based on Susan Andrews's Warm Me Up Tommy pattern, but I departed in a number of ways, including needle size (I used 9s instead of 8s, mostly because I had them at the ready), blanket size, border (seed stitch rather than ribbed), and color design (color blocks rather than a main color with skinny contrasting stripes). It turned out pretty sweet!
Rainy-Day Rainbow color burst worsted weight from Wonderland Yarns (love it!!!) worked into Jaala Spiro's Pickford cowl. The construction of this cowl borrows from triangle shawls, making for a simple knit and an interesting end shape.
