I’m trying to finish off, a lot of lingering projects.  Actually I need the needles.

This is a lovely yarn by Lion Brand. It’s named Heartland. It’s 5 oz, 251 yds. per

skein. They recommend size 9 needle. I usually use a size 8, instead. I can keep

a gauge, with a smaller needle.

Working on a cowl. Cast on 84, stitches, onto round size 8 needles. Purled a couple of

rows. Then Purl 2, Knit three.  Then worked in a tiny cable stitch.

I have a way to go, but this is how it’s working up.

Twisted cable cowl

My real point in posting this. Is this is very   nice yarn. It’s quite soft.  Actually it feels softer as it works up, without being limp.  It doesn’t split.  I guess you could say, it’s an enjoyable knit.
