looking for testers - mogul cowl & infiniti scarf

well, it looks as though i successfully completed 3-4 days of the knitting blog week! the balance of my week got crazy with work and errands, so i was a naughty blogger and i did not post - oopps!

today i'm sharing with you a preview of one of my new patterns - the mogul cowl & infiniti scarf. the pattern includes instructions on how to create a close-fitting cowl and a long infiniti scarf you can wear in many ways - wrapped around the neck loosely or swirled around a few times, or as a hooded cowl.

i'm currently looking for test knitters to knit both the small and large versions. the small version uses about 200 yards of heavy worsted/chunky weight yarn. the large version uses about 400 yards of light worsted weight yarn.

if you are interested in testing, please PM me on Ravelry. details for testers are available in the BreeanElyse group on Ravelry.

My cowl design featured in Malabrigo's latest ad!

Thanks to my awesome friend Sam, I was given the opportunity to design a few patterns for the newest upcoming book for Malabrigo yarns. I'm extremely excited about this book and I can't wait for it to be finished. There will be more posts on this, but for now, here's a shot I took with my iPhone when I accidentally stumbled upon this ad and said, "I think that's my design!"

I used Malabrigo's yarn Rasta in colorway #862 Piedras. What I find extremely awesome is that this picture is of the actual sample that I knitted when I designed the pattern!

Here's the link to the Book 3 thread on the Malabrigo Junkies forum on Ravelry.

I'd love to hear your feedback on the design!
