I definitely think this would work well...Hi Carol!<br /><br />I definitely think this would work well with a fashion yarn. :) If you're working with more of a worsted weight yarn you could begin by casting on a few fewer stitches - maybe 29 or 31 (of even fewer if you want a really narrow piece - just make sure to cast on an odd number). You'll want to work your ribbing on your gauge sized needles long enough to fit around the back of your neck - in the pattern, it's about 7" long, feel free to measure yourself to figure out how long yours should be! Then, of course, gauge your needles up for the main pattern, probably to a US 10 or thereabouts (again, I'm assuming worsted in this case, you'll have to tell me if your gauge is different). Continue in the main pattern until the piece is nearly your desired length, and then work the final rows when you're ready! :) Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-51624612830246552902017-11-28T10:00:05.406-08:002017-11-28T10:00:05.406-08:00I would like to make a short, quick version of thi...I would like to make a short, quick version of this so it is more necklace than cowl, please. Would a shimmering or mixed fibre yarn with acrylic on larger needles work? A fashion yarn. Smaller needles and thin yarn makes my fingers ache. I am below average in height so it would probably also suit a youngster - teenager. Thank you for any advice as there never is enough time to knit all one would make easily and wear. With many thanks, Carol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
