Rotheca is a simple cowl knit in the round and long enough to wrap twice around neck. The stripe pattern makes a simple knit look that little bit special.

It’s knit at a slightly looser gauge than would usually be used for this yarn weight, but any smooth 4ply yarn will do.

You will need two balls of the main colour (the paler colour in the photos) and one ball of the stripe colour.
