  • When I printed the pattern, the picture of the cowl did not print. Got just the printed pattern. Love the cowl, but want to do it later and to have picture to refer to would be nice. Thank you.

  • I am now rather set in my ways and would like to know if this pattern can be knitted on two needles in the old-fashioned way please and maybe shorter as I am petite ? If one knits only in garter stitch in the round to produce a stockinette effect, is understandbale, but for a simple pattern such as 5k, 1p, on the right side, I would greatly appreciate advice. I cannot let this beat me. Smiley. With many thanks. Mrs C Cooley (OAP = retired) GB
