La Merenda is an asymmetric knitted cowl with a cast on of only 2 stitches. The cowl can be worn in many ways due to not being knitted in the round and thanks to the asymmetrically placed buttons and buttonholes around the sides.

This cowl is knitted with fingering yarn held together with mohair, so be careful to always carry both strands of yarn. You will need 100g of fingering and 50g of mohair.

The pattern includes both written instructions and small charts.
