Falling Leaves Cowl

This was another mindless knit. I needed something easy for my overnight job, and thought plain garter stitch would show off the texture of the yarn well.

It's been a long time since I did anything in straight garter, and it was kind of a relief.

This piece is 30 stitches of garter on size 11 needles. It's a bit too wide. I will probably make the next one a bit more narrow. Have another skein in another colorway, equally mish-mashy of colors, a bit more primary.

The buttonhole row knits as follows: k5, (k2tog, yo2, ssk, k4) x 3, k1. There was too much fabric on either side of the outside buttonholes. Live and learn.

This is one skein of Loops & Threads Country Loom in colorway Falling Leaves, all but a few yards, knit on size 11 needles.
