<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I propose that we try a knit-along, and that we use the pattern I have for a 2-color tweed cowl. Its called the Morton Cowl, if anyone wants to look it up on Ravelry.
</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Its knit flat and the ends are sewn together to make it into a cowl. Otherwise its a 40-inch long, somewhat wide, scarf. The fabric feels like its woven, and has intermixed colors, but its actually
easy to make. If you can knit and purl, you can make this.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Youll need 1 skein each of 2 colors of worsted yarn and size 7 needles.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Youll need a way to label the colors, so youre sure youre working with the right one at the right time.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I dont know loom knitting, but it might work as well on that.
</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">If this is agreeable to the people interested in a knit-along, we can figure out a day and time. If its not agreeable and people want to make something else, I welcome suggestions.</span></p>
