    EXCELENT comments.....very helpful, I have notated my pattern about colors 2 + 3, and I loved that you mentioned "stash-busting", which is always a problem, and trying it in finger-weight. All in all, I like your analysis.

      I'm glad you found it helpful! It's fun to break down the pattern for stash busting

    Really helpful tips on arranging the colours to compliment colouring.

    Thank you for the tips! I'm also late to the Shift cowl party. Getting ready to knit it for the first time and decided to use fingering yarn. Both of your cowls are beautiful!

    I’m also late to the party with this one. Working on it right now and loving it. Glad I have yarn put aside for a second one.

    I love the color combination on you! And great tip about what colors are closest to your face. I know you are a fast knitter, but about how much time might it take an average knitter to make this?

      I’m not really sure how to guess knitting speed/time but it’s like knitting 1/3 or so of an average shawl if that’s helpful!

    Is there a way to make this cowl a bit smaller for my preteen?

      I’d just size down the yarn and needles! Her more recent cowl patterns have more sizes but different stitch patterns

    How did you adjust the pattern for fingering weight?

      I didn't change the pattern at all, I doubled the thinner yarn, it's more around a DK weight project for me
