Inspired by Margaret Wise Brown’s worldwide bestselling children’s book from 1947, this cowl is worked seamlessly in the round from the bottom up and features a comb, and a brush, and a bowl full of mush, a crackling fireplace, kittens, a drying rack with mittens and socks, and a moon peaking through a windowpane with striped curtains - all iconic items from the book.

It uses 5 mini skeins of Keenan Hand Dyed Yarn Superwash Sock Minis at 92 yds/84 m each. Almost every bit of yarn was used, so please be mindful of your gauge.

The corrugated rib edgings are worked on smaller circular needles, with the stranded colorwork portion worked on larger circular needles.
