This pattern is available from northernyarn.co.uk for £5.00.

A geometric colourwork cowl, with a repetitive pattern. A relaxing knit with enough to keep your interest

It uses 4 ply, fingering weight yarns.

I used 60gms of the coral colour and 40gms of brown, along with 25gms each of cream and teal - so you could go stash diving.

My inspiration for this pattern came from the beautiful architecture of the buildings in Normandy and I wanted to use s local yarn with heritage and a story.

Finished sizing 60cm wide and 38cm in length.

Knitted in the round using 3.5mm circular needles, 24in tip to tip in length.

It is available to purchase as a single pattern and part of a kit from Northern Yarn.
