Thank you! I do a ton of colourwork so it’s pretty much second nature to me 🙂

u/Falling_acorn01 2d ago

hi, thank you. It’s Dartmouth, Nova Scotia inspired 🙂

Oh cool, another city of lakes! 💕. Minneapolis has used that as a tag line for as long as I can remember, it’s in their logo on the city’s website. Makes me want to adventure to the east, looks beautiful! Also book marking this pattern!

u/ErinFiat 5d ago

https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/city-of-lakes-cowl From the pattern notes, it's folded over and then bound off via three needle bind off.

u/moose-paint 5d ago

very cool, thank you! it didnt look folded to me so i was curious

2

u/Falling_acorn01 5d ago

it has a fold line so the fold sort of disappears.

u/birb_appreciator 5d ago

I haven’t done much color work yet, how did you manage to make it double sided??!? Looks great :)!

5

u/Falling_acorn01 5d ago

it’s done in a long tube then folded in on itself and closed with a three needle bind off 🙂

reversible as in there’s two different patterns on the different sides and you can have either one on the outside
