A soft, warm, lofty cowl in a pretty stitch pattern. Knitted in handspun alpaca yarn, this is guaranteed to keep you toasty all winter. Bulky yarn means it’s a quick knit too. The stitch pattern is suitable for beginner lace knitters and easy to memorise. This cowl is knit flat, then the cast-on and bind-off edges are grafted together.

Both charts and written instructions are given for the lace pattern.
