Okay, so I actually finished this cowl a few days ago, but it needed a bath and desperately needed blocking. Blocking made a huge difference for this one: it evened out the edges, opened up the lace, and made the beautiful wavy edges!

I blocked this one more vertically, since I wanted a taller cowl. I could have easily done it the other way and made a wider cowl, which would have opened up the lace more. Heck, I could do that in the future if I wanted too. But we’ll see how it goes like this. I will say it’s harder to see the lace and waved edge when you’re wearing it.

But you can’t miss the color, which is my favorite thing about this cowl. Have I mentioned how much I love Malabrigo yarn? They always have such swoon-worthy colors.

The pattern is Waverly Weekend Cowl and I did seven repeats of the lace pattern, no modifications. The yarn is Malabrigo Rios in Magenta.
