A Knit 'Stripe' Cowl

I'm practicing my knitting

and have wanted to knit a cowl

for a very long time.

I love the look of knit rib

so when I found this pattern

I knew I had to use the

Moda Very Monkey yarn I bought

to make one for myself.

I learnt a lot while making this cowl, like

continental knitting is a lot faster when you get the hang of it

and out of fear for binding off too tightly, I bound off too loosely

(as you can see at the base of the cowl, ooopsy).

When I wear it (photo on the way?!)

the loose bind off actually looks really good as 

it flares around my collar bones.
