I love a repetitive easy to work but complex to the eye project and Purl Onion is just that. The cowl uses two contrasting skeins of fingering weight. I used Iron Horse and Rime as they drapes wonderfully and work beautifully together.

Purl Onion is worked seamlessly in the round. Instructions for the stitch pattern section are written out line by line and we have a video tutorial should you need it, All measurements are given in metric and Imperial for personal preference.
