Beautiful yarn! I've been wanting to do a mobius cowl forever... I love all your patterns, they are so easy to follow, which for a beginner, I really appreciate that!
Posted by: Eileen Eisenman | October 17, 2009 at 11:17 AM
I love the color!
Posted by: Aimie | October 17, 2009 at 11:17 AM
I've always wanted to try a mobius, but don't like the big ones. This cowl is beautiful and would be perfect.
Posted by: Linda | October 17, 2009 at 11:20 AM

Beautiful pattern. I,ve never used mohair before, but this is something I would love to try.
Posted by: Carol Williams | October 17, 2009 at 11:39 AM
ooooh mohair, now that's a yarn I've yet to try. I've been knitting four months and I'm loving all the different yarns. With winter coming on quickly, this could be the perfect winter warmer. Thanks for posting it and offering such a generous giveaway.
Posted by: Kelly | October 17, 2009 at 11:41 AM
How beautiful and soft! I've certainly pined GGH!
Posted by: Fay | October 17, 2009 at 11:41 AM
You are so talented and have an excellent eye for design and color.
Posted by: SANDRA MAIN | October 17, 2009 at 11:44 AM
This looks so soft and luxurious. I love projects like this where it is quick to knit up, but fabulous to wear.
Posted by: Sandy H. | October 17, 2009 at 11:45 AM
I LOVE this cowl in this gorgeous yarn! I made up an oversized, long ribbed cowl (on large needles) and use it for winter sports, as it is easy to pull up over my hair and wear as a hood when outdoors, then drop it down when indoors.
Posted by: Sarah Laurens | October 17, 2009 at 11:56 AM
Looks soft and yummy like cotton candy! :)
Posted by: Sandy Lum | October 17, 2009 at 11:58 AM
I have wanted to try a mobius anything. In fact, our guild is going to have a class on making a scarf. It is a beautiful pattern and would definitely strtch me as a knitter. Thank you for the give away!
Posted by: Linda Pierce | October 17, 2009 at 11:58 AM
Perfect gift idea, and plenty of time to make several before Christmas !
Posted by: Leslie | October 17, 2009 at 11:59 AM
Oh, this is beautiful!
Posted by: Marit Johanne | October 17, 2009 at 12:04 PM
Lovely pattern and yarn. I just made two baby alpaca cowls (nonmobius) for my Maine brother and SIL for use already -- it's winter there, I think! I haven't done a mobius before either, so this would be a great challenge.
Posted by: Susan (sjanova) | October 17, 2009 at 12:05 PM
I have been wanting to make a cowl and this one speaks to me. In our cold weather, this would keep my neck nice and toasty warm!!! Good idea for gift giving too
Posted by: Pam | October 17, 2009 at 12:11 PM
What a nice pattern and such a pretty yarn! I think I'll try my hand at it even w/o a win of the draw.
Posted by: Tabitha | October 17, 2009 at 12:17 PM
Very beautiful and looks reall really soft....this is just what I need!!
Posted by: Krista | October 17, 2009 at 12:24 PM

Great idea for gifts. I love it.
Posted by: SherAsha | October 17, 2009 at 12:45 PM
I've been looking at these patterns in books and magazines and am amazed by the intricateness of the patterns and the set up of the needles.
Posted by: Barbara Nelson | October 17, 2009 at 12:52 PM
It's Cowl season and this one looks great.
Posted by: two-of-six | October 17, 2009 at 12:59 PM
Sure like this and other patterns you have but always spend to much so can not buy More
Posted by: Juanita Noble | October 17, 2009 at 01:01 PM
It would be my first cowl as well as first mobius. Looks warm but light as a feather.
Posted by: Li_B | October 17, 2009 at 01:04 PM
What a gorgeous cowl. Hope I win
Posted by: Jenness Weldon | October 17, 2009 at 01:07 PM
A lovely pattern! I've been into cowls lately and this one looks like I can forget that I have it on and stay "cozy".
Love the colors, too! Good luck everyone!
Posted by: Debbie | October 17, 2009 at 01:10 PM

Posted by: Susie Marro | October 17, 2009 at 03:30 PM
Love the fact that its done back and forth and then sewn up, so easy!
Posted by: SharonB | October 17, 2009 at 03:40 PM
Love the mobius cowl; it makes me want to curl up in front of a fire with my needles......
Posted by: Janet A | October 17, 2009 at 03:51 PM

Posted by: Debbie B | October 17, 2009 at 04:17 PM
I have wanted to try a mobius scarf, but haven't had the nerve to try it yet. Thanks for having this giveaway!
Posted by: Carmen | October 17, 2009 at 04:26 PM
This is fantastic. I just made a mobius cowl and i have gotten lots of compliments but a mohair one is sure to turn heads and inspire jealousy !!
Posted by: Mary | October 17, 2009 at 04:35 PM
I love the look of this.
Posted by: Rebecca Jones | October 17, 2009 at 04:39 PM
love the patern and the yarn.. SO pretty and feminine It would make an elegant addition to any wardrobe.
Posted by: Jeanette Mills | October 17, 2009 at 05:27 PM
A cowl is on my TO DO list and I like doing lace patterns and the yarn is one of my favorite colors. Jean
Posted by: Jean | October 17, 2009 at 05:40 PM

Posted by: Laura Amarys | October 17, 2009 at 05:49 PM
What a lovely mobius cowl, and the yarn looks positively scrumptious! This is definitely something I'd like to do this fall!!
Posted by: Shirley | October 17, 2009 at 06:04 PM
the yarn makes me drool.
Posted by: dori mondon | October 17, 2009 at 06:45 PM
The cowl is spectacular!
Posted by: Diane Rhodes | October 17, 2009 at 06:46 PM
Looks so soft & warm!
Posted by: Susan Spiers | October 17, 2009 at 07:27 PM
Looks like a great pattern. I really like the large pictures at the bottom of the page so that we can see the detail of the pattern. I think the lavender mohair will gook gorgeous made up. I have been wanting to try a mobius for a while, I need to find VERY simple directions to try.
Posted by: Lynn | October 17, 2009 at 08:46 PM
This yarn looks very soft and knitting a cowl in it sounds a great idea. Since I started to knit, I'm curious of the mobius way. One day, I'll try it!
Posted by: Caroline | October 17, 2009 at 08:47 PM
Gorgeous but I'll have to wait until winter comes again to contemplate it's squooshiness around my neck!
Posted by: HelenLR | October 17, 2009 at 09:04 PM
You are truly talented. the cowl is gorgeous, looks super soft. I love the color too, just makes it look so elegant.
Posted by: Sandy Brown | October 17, 2009 at 09:49 PM
This cowl looks so soft and beautiful. Have wanted to try a Mobius, but most are too big & bulky. This one looks perfect. Hope I win!
Posted by: Vicki Morgan-Bogart | October 17, 2009 at 10:21 PM
What a lovely color, and perfect with my eyes. They tend to change from blue to green to purple, depending on what I wear. Since it's so moderate here, I usually can get away with a cardigan and scarf. This would be such a gorgeous piece to knit and wear. Thanks for the opportunity!
Posted by: Gayle Schultz | October 17, 2009 at 10:23 PM
Love the idea of a cowl that can transition into a "scarf" that makes it a perfect jacket filler. I love purple and would make it in that color. Haven't tried lace yet, but I love the idea of cozy mohair to make this lacy confection.
Posted by: Kathy B | October 17, 2009 at 11:00 PM
I love all the cowls you have posted. Please enter me!
Posted by: Emma | October 17, 2009 at 11:23 PM
