Here is a lovely, lacy, but not difficult pattern for a fluffy cowl. You will use two strands of Trendsetter laceweight mohair/silk blend with a shiny strand of silver in the mix along with one strand of Berocco Vintage DK. The mohair adds whispers of fluff and a shimmer of tinsel and the dk is for strength. I chose the colors of Cinderella’s dress. Dreamlike and feminine. You can change the aura of this pattern by using different colors. Imagine it in red or purple?! The lace is quite easy and is a 16 stitch repeat. You will hold the three strands of yarn together throughout and use a size US10/6mm 16”/40cm circular needle for speed. These will make quick, impressive gifts! The lace is bordered top and bottom with easy 2 x 2 rib.

The pattern includes a large, easy-to-read chart and also written directions for the charted rows for those who don’t like using charts.
