Cobey is the ninth pattern in the Sweet Little Somethings pattern collection. The collection includes a total of 9 patterns (of which 2 are a matching set). The patterns comprise shawls, scarves, hats, mitts and a cowl.

Cobey is a cosy aran weight shawl that is worked entirely in one piece. Super simple to knit, Cobey begins at the bottom and is worked upwards. This means you can choose how big to make your shawl. The increases are cleverly built into the stitch pattern making this a relaxing and rhythmical knit.

NOTES

  • The blue shawl is the Large size. It used just under 2 skeins of Malabrigo Worsted (1.7 skeins = 350m/385 yds)

  • The red shawl is the Small size. It used 1 skein of Malabrigo Worsted (1 skein = 190m/210yds)

  • Due to the way the shawl is constructed, there is a lot of flexibility over how big you make your shawl / how much yarn you use.
