FOF Linda Morse is giving away a knitting kit from her store
String NY. It includes a pattern and all the luscious, 100% Italian cashmere yarn you need to make this chic, reversible cable cowl. Don't know how to knit? Linda will have one of her master-knitters hand stitch the cowl for you instead. A $128 value!
String NY is the
"best knitting store in the world," according to FabOverFifty.com founder, Geri. Located in New York City and

OMG I would love white or black so I could wear it with everything.
I would knit or wear a red reversible cowl. I’m a Huskers fan and it would be great to wear to games. Thanks!
“I would love this knitted scarf in a pink color for my mother on her birthday which is November 19th!” Good Luck all!
baby pink,bright pink and purple mixed together
this is the way a blog should be! thanks!
I would love to wear and knit this in baby pink
Have always wanted to learn to knit or crochet and love scarves. This would be a fun set
I would wear the bright pink because that color against my skin brings out the pink tones in my skin, gives me a more youthful look.
I would wear all the colors so I would be color coordinated in some way but if I had to choose one, I would pick beige.
Luscious colours. I’d love to win the yarn for a purple cowl.

What a beautiful pattern! I love the flannel. I have been adapting the colors I wear to my new coloring (that came with letting my hair turn silver- love Cindy Joseph for inspiring us all). I have been wanted to knit/crochet again after a long hiatus. Thanks!
Would love this in purple, to go with my new winter coat I got for my birthday last week.
Purple, please!
Today is a pink day – bright sunny – temperature in the 60′s and I would love a pink scarf in the fall – cuddly warm and a color to enhance the color on my cheeks. Yes, I would love to win this scarf in pink and share it with my sisters!
This really is a great looking cowl, and a reverse cable would be a new stitch challenge foe me! I’d have to go with red, but all the colors are fab!
O.K. I have come back to this give-a-way three times, Cashmere has that effect on me, I thought about everything I enter I always choose Blue, I am taking a bold step and decided I really love the Pink, I mean come on, look how beautiful she is in the photo, I have made up my mind I am choosing the PINK, I have enough Blue, I do not want everyone to start saying here comes blue Pat again,Boring, I need and want fun and bright colors, I will be honest I do not know how to knit, I am left handed and someone tryed one time to teach me and she was right handed, besides how fun and funny it was “trying” to learn, at the end there was a curve in the center and I believe it came from each of us trying to go different ways, so yes, I need someone to knit the cowl for me if I win. Thank you and good luck to all.
I love to knit and have made many scarves for myself and for gifts. I would love to learn to make this lovely cowl neckpiece, different from the long scarves I have been making. I would definitely pick the new stone as it is neutral and could be worn with almost any color.
I love to knit and have made so many scarves for myself and for gifts, but nothing like this lovely piece that I would love to learn to make. My preference would definitely be the new stone as it is neutral and could be worn with many colors.
Pretty in Pink! And oh so soft cashmere! I’d be stylish and warm.
stone, purple and oh so versatile denim! those are the colors i think would be more becoming on myself.. and that pretty pink one.. i f i won it, my daughter, i can foresee, would be all over it! thanks!!
WOW my favorite color is pink and the cowl is so beautiful I would love to wear that at the moment I’m not working so I would love to win this just for me. The baby pink is awesome.

The temperatures are dropping here and the snow line is moving down the mountains – a perfect time to knit. If I win the contest, I’d love to try the new color “Stone.” Thank you.
I would pick hot pink because this color adds color to your face and you look very alive!
I am very fond of the new “Stone” color. But the beige, black or choc. would look lovely with my riding jacket and vest. This cowl will add a touch of class to any outfit.
I would do something mostly in the baby pink (my favorite color) with 1/3 mix of the stone and trim it in purple, used to crochet when younger and would provably be good for me to do some again when hands corporate with me. Even better, have someone more talented do something beautiful in those colors which I would be then proud to wear and show off.
I love to have Purple….Winter is for purple.
knitting is my new passion.I like to try new things.

I love the green #55087. Green is the perfect color to wear in Oregon as the trees stay beautiful no matter what the weather may bring.
I think the baby pink– was it light pink would be so nice for my mother who is a breast cancer survivor. She is always cold and keeps losing my scarves, shawls, etc being only 89 years old. I am unfamiliar with your store, but if iris likes it, it must be good.
I absolutely love the red and would love to knit it up. What a great punch of color thru the drab grey days of winter!
What a sweet gift for someone, the color is for Fall!
This is just gorgeous. I would wear the flannel. It goes with anything.
Would love it in purple
Glorious Red!!!
It’s gotta be the Black #8010 because just about everything in my closet is predominantly black.
My choice would be the New “stone” color.
It would seem to be an ideal color to go with a jacket
or sweater, and versitle with any outfit color.
I am not sure to attempt to do it myself or have
it knitted for me yet.
What an absolutely gorgeous array of colors! As I perused the list, I made my choice at least six times…chocolate? stone? My final choice, however, is the green. I am a fair complected redhead, so greens are always a good choice. I also have strong Irish roots in my family, so the green would be both flattering and a nod to my ancestors.
I love the look of your products…maybe this is the year I should learn to knit!
I love the purple color and would love the pattern
I would have to go with Red. I love a bright color on a cold day.
I just love the Cable Cowl Neck, and would love to have one in Off White, so I can accessorize it with any outfit.
I would love to win this contest. I like the denim blue color. If I won I would be able to make a beautiful item and also it would help me get back into knitting which used to be my favorite past time, until I had 3 children and no past time! I am ready!
Love me some purple
Wow……GREAT colors & style!
WoW…..Great colors & look!
Without a doubt BLUE, it’s cold in New England and wearing this beautiful Blue Cashmere around my neck will definatly turn heads while it warms mine. I have never had the opportunity to own Cashmere, although I have tryed it on in stores, this time I can wrap myself in luxury. I definatly need help knitting this cowl, I would love to feel the winters in new England wrapped in Italian Cashmere, Santa if I win this you can toss my list away, Thank you Ms. Santa
All of the colors are sooooo rich and beautiful. It would be really hard to pick just one! Usually one to go with the bright colors, I think I’d have to go with the beige this time. Just looking at the beige and thinking of the softness of the cashmere makes me feel pampered. I can just picture myself in it everyday, all warm and cozy and looking like a million bucks all the while! What fun!
I would wear Stone.
