Knit your Calvaria in company during the Ambah X Halloween KAL. Details here.
Delicate lace with a twist, the Calvaria Scarf and Cowl are perfect for a Halloween project to keep all the family warm while trick-or-treating. Choose between the looped cowl or the scarf variation in either DK or Super Bulky weight yarn and adjust to make as short or long as you like. The pattern is readily adapted to the yardage you have on hand and will suit varying yarn weights too - just match your needle to suit. Each skull is worked in a block repeat and will look spectacular knit up with mini-skeins, one per block. Fingering weight held double will also be suitable and makes this a perfect stash diving project to use up those lovely leftovers.
The pattern includes both charts and written instructions and an accompanying technique video.
