.. because I actually knitted a project for myself!

| Finished but unblocked |
Quite a while back I bought a skein of heavenly Violet Green Silk & Cashmere 4ply yarn in the gorgeous Trance colourway.
I decided to knit myself a Good Luck Cowl with it.
The pattern is very easy and doesn't take long to knit up.

| Yarn sadly now discontinued |
I guess I'll be washing this a few times before I wear it!
Update:
I gave the cowl a real good wash and soak until the water rinsed clear and have worn it for 2 days now. It's gorgeously warm and soft - and my neck hasn't turned purple... Fabulous!

What a shame it shed so much colour. Maybe a rinse in vinegar would be a good idea after your first wash? It does look good, though.
Happy New Year
Great cowl, shame about the colour running :)
Beautiful! I love that color, and hope it will stop running and stay put soon. :)
