Tweedledum and Tweedledee Cowl
by Chroma Yarns The Jabberwock described this (well, actually he hissed and spat) he described this pattern as a decorative cowl created using two weight yarns and a simple repeating pattern. The Jabberwock is not a generous beast when it comes to descriptions. I, on the other hand. Think this is a lovely design which magically appears when the item is blocked,' said Alice.

Finishing
Sew in loose ends and block. How I blocked the cowl using blocking wires..
2 wires top and bottom for the length of the cowl. One wire for the depth each side. Block the cowl to form the hexagon shapes. Tips: wrap yarns around one another at the end of every round, aka intarsia technique, so that the yarn not in use is 'carried' up the rows as you go. Mark the beginning of a round with a safety pin or stitch marker. Remember to change yarns at the marker as the chart dictates. The pattern 'stepping' will not be noticable in the finished cowl.

Alice says: 'There are lots of spots in the cowl all around, But only twentywords in the puzzle to be found..... Not the best poetry I've read...'said Dormouse.
