The Liányī Cowl features a rippling wave pattern with a neat i-cord cast on and bind off in a contrasting colour. A stash busting, easy project with memorable pattern repeats and alternate rounds of knit stitch.

I have been obsessed with researching wave effects. This is my version, simplified and adapted to knit in the round, for a quick but effective knit. It represents my love of all things water related, living by the sea with my children and happy memories with good friends.

Great for beginners ready to branch out and for experienced knitters alike. Written instructions are included for a 4 Ply/Fingering weight and a DK version. There is a chart for the pattern rounds.
