For Mr. Wonderful and Wild Thing, I knit these
Man Cowls from This Boy Knits blog. I used a Cascade 220 Superwash Quattro yarn - just over 1 skein for the Man Cowl and then another half or more for the Man-child Cowl. If I were to do it again, I'd cast on 10 fewer stitches for the grown up version - otherwise these turned out great. For the boy version, I cast on 65 stitches and did the repeats in sets of 8 stitches rather than 10 so that the spiral would be more to scale.
They've both been wearing these everyday since Christmas! Makes my heart all warm and mushy...

Could you please ask Mr. Wonderful to wear it to work so I can see? thanks, C
