The test knit of Tamiko has come to an end with some wonderful cowls and one cape in progress, hence I have released the pattern in both English and Norwegian in my Ravelry Store. My test knitters did a marvellous job correcting and improving the pattern.

Tamiko can be worn as a cape, poncho or shawl as it has a rectangular shape with a neck opening at the center. Michael took these brilliant photos of me in our front garden back in March.

I knitted Tamiko and Arine, worn beneath it, in the luxurious mYak Baby Yak Medium using a 4.5 mm/US 7 needle with a gauge of 19 stitches and 26 rows/rounds in Stockinette stitch measuring 10 cm/4 inches square after blocking.

The cable found on both the cape and the cowl is easier to work than it looks. Even my test knitters agree to that!
