The Gonnagle patterns are inspired by Sir Terry Pratchett’s Discworld, and my favorite characters, the Nac Mac Feegle. Named for the fearsome bard of the blue, wee free men, consider these accessories your permission to compose terrible poetry to demoralize your enemies and rouse your friends!

Finished cowl is 23” in circumference and 8 inches high.

This pattern is suitable for the knitter with experience reading a chart and stranded colorwork.

Materials:
I have used 1 skein each of Midnight Sea, and Thermal Spring, Loon Lake, Spring Ice, Red Rock and Highland Fleece.

Note, to knit all three patterns you will need an additional skein of Midnight Sea and Thermal Spring.
