The first row of leaves is finished! Today I'm working on a name for this cowl - I usually have something picked by the time I write the pattern but this time I'm completely stumped!⁠

Today in the #FiberuaryChallenge is A Gift You Received. My mum's taken up knitting again over the winter while she can't get out in her garden. She's been sending little packages to my kids to keep them entertained - blankets for toys, little dogs with leads and collars and she's currently making a rabbit and a bear for them! The last package included this little red panda for me! Now he lives on top of my monitor.⁠

Here comes the lace! I didn't want a hard edge between the garter stitch border and the lace body so I've blended the two together. Can you see the start of the first little leaves?⁠

I'm so far behind with the #FiberuaryChallenge this week that I don't think there's any catching up so I'm skipping to today and #ThrowbackThursday! This is Goldmead which I released in February 2018! It's one of my favourite fingerless mitts patterns with a travelling cable and a separate little pinky finger!⁠

I do love a garter stitch border. It sits flat, it's got a bit of stretch and I just generally love garter stitch! ⁠
⁠
The test for this cowl has just gone up. If you'd like to help me with it the link is in my bio. It currently has no name (which makes talking about it slightly awkward!), uses under 436 yards of 4ply yarn, has been tech edited and is both written and charted! The deadline is the 16th March and the test is on @Yarnpond!⁠
