Meet your new favourite December project! The Scrappy Faded Cowl is designed for all those minis, leftovers, and special little skeins you’ve been saving. This cowl is knit in the round and gently fades from one colour to the next, creating the dreamiest gradient of scrappy goodness.

You can choose your own adventure with 12 or 24 minis—I’ve done all the math for you, so all you need to do is gather your yarn and start stitching. Pair your minis with one full skein of a main colour, carried throughout the cowl to blend everything together beautifully.

This is the perfect cozy make-along project for December: simple, soothing, and full of colour play. Once your tube is complete, the cowl is grafted at the end for a seamless finish.
Get ready to fade, play, and create something totally unique to you.
