Pattern Descriptions
Knitting with glitter? Yes, please! How can you not be in a good mood when you are knitting and wearing this fun and festive Glitter Girl Cowl & Beanie? Knit in the round with Lang Paillettes which is nestled in with the luxurious Fonty Saperlipopette a silky extra soft yarn, with a cloud-like voluminousity on size 9 circular needles. Great alternative for those with a mohair allergy as it is a blend of Baby Suri Alpaca, Silk and Fine Merino.
The simple two-round slip stitch pattern is easy to remember. Round 1 is worked with both yarns held together and Round 2 with the slip stitches is worked with a single strand of Saperlipopette. The blend of yarns perfectly defines the stitches creating a delicate and sumptuous cowl and beanie.
Spread a little glittery cheer anytime of the year to all your friends and family!
