Modern Colorwork Cowl in 3 colors -- On the Needles -- Practice for a 20 color project

Cast On -- First step in a colorwork cowl multicolor knitting sampler

Walking before Running

My cowl project on the needles today is the class project for Mary Jane Mucklestone's MODERN STRANDED KNITTING TECHNIQUES, an online class at Craftsy. She is a clear and knowledgeable presenter supported by the very useful close up visuals of her hands as she demonstrates. This is less like a class and more like a personal tutorial -- watching over the shoulder of an expert who provides basics and tips. I am very much enjoying the class video segments. Like other Craftsy classes the downloadable class materials are well done.

 I decided to do this project first before jumping headlong into a much more complicated multicolor project -- the East Meets West Satchel from Knitpicks. Stay tuned!
