Notes from the Designer:

Choose your own adventure!

I loved seeing those words on a book cover when I was a kid. These clever stories were written so that at the end of each chapter, the reader could choose an option about how the story should progress. Your choice determined what chapter you read next. The mix-and-match possibilities meant one book could tell a story many ways.

Chandi challenged me to interpret that very phrase, “choose your own adventure,” into a knit or crochet pattern. That was the first choice: knit or crochet? And I chose both so that everyone could join in the fun! I’ve provided fourteen stitch patterns that each represent a possible aspect of an adventure. As you answer the following questions, your choices will take you on your journey to create a design that is uniquely yours. Let’s get started!

• The sample cowl used approximately 997 m / 1,090 yds total: Color A: 256 m / 280 yds, Color B: 160 m / 175 yds, Color C: 169 m / 185 yds, Color D: 197 m / 215 yds, Color E: 215 m / 235 yds. Your yarn amounts may vary depending upon how many colors you use and which pattern options you select.
• The sample wrap used approximately 2,007 m / 2,195 yds total: Color A: 347 m / 380 yds, Color B: 434 m / 475 yds, Color C: 421 m / 460 yds, Color D: 448 m / 490 yds, Color E: 357 m / 390 yds. Your yarn amounts may vary depending upon how many colors you use and which pattern options you select.
• Gauge isn't crucial but can affect overall dimensions and yarn amounts.
• As written, each section is approximately 12” (30.5 cm) tall. You may wish to stop at 8” (20.5 cm) or 10“ (25.5 cm) per section instead.
