My Malabrigo March Madness knitting is off to a great start. By March 2nd, I'd already finished my first project - a Modish Cowl, which is a lovely color block stitch cowl design from Stephen West.

My version is knit in Malabrigo Twist - colors Pearl Ten and Manzanilla Olive. I just love the contrast from the pops of acid green.

I made a few slight modifications:

• shortened the final MC section by about half
• completed 8 ridges in CC edging
• switched MC & CC for opposite edging and completed 8 ridges
• seamed with a quick single crochet edge to match the rest of the seams
