Lövmossen is a set with a sweater, hat and a cowl. The sweater will be published later this summer.

This cowl is worked in reverse stockinette with the wrong side facing since we all dread too many purl stitches. It is also a great project to practice the leaf pattern before knitting the sweater.

The cowl is knitted up quickly on size 4mm stitches in DK yarn. Since it’s a bit fiddly to work the leaf pattern from the reverse side I have added a YouTube video on my YouTube Channel. The video is in Swedish with english subtitles.
