Project #88

Here is project number 88. Some swap friends discovered the BFF cowl on Ravelry and wanted to make it. I looked it over a decided I wanted to go with a dk weight yarn instead of worsted, so I found a partner that also wanted to use the same yarn as me. Once I started following the pattern though, I didn't really like it (purl 5 together? that's crazy!), so we decided to design our own and swap. My design has i-cord edges, with small cables on the sides, and a heart motif in the middle (same one as Eliana's blanket). I think it turned out pretty great (if I do say so myself)!
