Free Pattern Friday – Pastillage Cowl
This blog post is about the Pastillage Cowl, a cabled cowl knit in Rico Design Creative Chic Unique.
I really enjoyed knitting with Bamboo Pop - baby booties and little baby washclothes. It doesn’t split, has great stitch definition, and really excellent drape. I’d definitely use it again.
Bamboo Pop is beautiful, soft, and breathable, with good stitch definition. No spiltting and enough elasticity it was nice to work with.
I used Cotton Supreme for a baby blanket and LOVED it. It was much softer than I’ve usually been led to believe about cotton and the color that I used (magenta) was gorgeous.
