Pattern: Burning Ring of Fire
Yarn: leftover scraps of Tanis Fiber Arts Aran Weight (Green label)
Needles: 5mm circulars (US8)
Mods: Added Stripes, to use up 4 leftover colours of yarn. I knitted in pattern for 19 rounds, added one row of the new colour, then back to the previous colour for an additional round, then continued in the new colour for 19 rows.
Notes: This pattern is so fantastic- it's super easy, super fast, and by striping it I could stash-bust some of those random leftover bits of skeins that you get piling up. This is the perfect little cowl for when the fall arrives, and I think this would make an awesome and quick gift for someone, too. I love this cowl, and I bet it would look lovely in variegated yarns or even something a little fuzzy. Maybe I'll try a different texture the next time I knit this! A little strand of mohair or angora carried with the yarn would be very cozy in the winter...

This cowl is the perfect accessory! I love how you used colors that really showed both the design of the cowl and the beauty of TFA yarns.

That is a beautiful way to use up leftovers! Great color combo.
And I agree about trying a different texture next time - I'd be up for a strand of kid silk carried throughout. Very cozy for fall. :)
