Sister Cowls

I bought some pretty yarn to make an item in my queue. The color turned out to be not what I expected, but it was still pretty. Even better, it turned out to be exactly enough to make two of the items. So one is off by snail mail to my sister, who admired the first one when it was under construction.

I have no explanation whatsoever for why it started to pool into stripes a quarter of the way through the skein. I don't mind them.

Yarn: Malabrigo Yarn's Rios in Arco Iris
Needles: US 10 (6mm)
Pattern: Kristen Kapur's Chickadee Cowl

The range of colors labeled Arco Iris on Ravelry convinces me that this yarn could turn out to be any color at all when you order it. Nevertheless, I would work with it again. It had a lovely squishy feel to it, and was pleasant to work with.
