When are triangles not triangles? When they make a circle!

Circular Reasoning is knit flat as 2 triangles, but results in a circular cowl that doesn’t require seaming. Sound a little crazy? Don’t worry--there’s a photo tutorial to help you along.

The pattern is the cowlification of Lyrical Knits Passaggio shawl pattern, and is a neat way to use up scraps from other projects. The garter stitch makes for a relaxing knit, and the curious construction method keeps things fun.

As a permanent promotion, you may purchase all 3 triangle-to-circle Lyrical Knits’ cowl patterns: Circulation, Circular Reasoning, and Slanted Circle) for a total of $9. The discount will be made right in your cart, whether they are purchased all at once or separately.
