Coastal Marine Cowl by The Fibre Co.
|
|
This beautiful double-thickness cowl features a stunning colourwork pattern that can be worn on either side, specially designed to neatly hide the floats. The wave pattern on one side is reminiscent of a stormy ocean, and a simple striped pattern on the other reflects the opposite – a calm ocean with occasional ripples. Designed in two jewel-toned shades of Road to China Light, a blend of natural fawn baby alpaca, camel hair, cashmere, and silk, this cowl feels superlatively soft close to the neck.
CONSTRUCTION NOTES:
This cowl is knitted in the round in one piece. The knitted fabric is folded and grafted together at the end to create a double thickness cowl. The cowl features an ocean waves colourwork pattern on the outside and a simple striped pattern on the inside.
The cowl starts with a provisional cast on and then is worked in the round in as a long tube. Once complete, it’s folded in on itself so that the wrong sides are facing each other and grafted together to make a seamless piece. Carefully positioned purl rows ensure the fabric folds neatly to showcase the colourwork pattern.
SKILL LEVEL:
Advanced beginner- you will need to know how to do a provisional cast-on and grafting in the round.
Included in kit: 2 skeins of 2 colors of Road to China Light (Sport weight, 65% alpaca/15% silk/10% camel, 10% cashmere, 159 yards per skein) and a download of the pattern to your Ravelry library. Please provide your Ravelry username at checkout.
Not included in kit: 24" size 3 and 5 circular knitting needles, 1 marker for the beginning of the round, 4 additional markers, 2 removeable markers, waste yarn, spare 16" size 3 circular for grafting.
