The lace and cable combination of the Pompom Cowl makes this a cheerful accessory to any wardrobe! Made from 100% baby alpaca yarn with an airy construction and adorable little bobbles, this cowl is super light yet very warm. (Takes only a couple of hours, and you have a last-minute gift sorted!)

One Size: 27.5cm (length) x 22.5cm (width) (11” x 9”)

Yarn Substitutions: Any chunky (12ply +) yarn can be substituted, and plain colours show up lace pattern really well.

Instructions: Pattern instructions include the pattern chart, as well as fully written-out instructions if you prefer.

The start and finish of the work are sewn together with the Kitchener Stitch for seamless join. There are many Kitchener Stitch instruction videos online for your reference. However, if you’re not yet very confident with this, feel free to start with the usual long-tail cast-on, bind off at the end, fold the work right sides facing, then simply sew the two edges together.

This yarn and lacy pattern is very stretchy, and is very yarn-efficient. Since it only takes about half a ball to make the Pompom Cowl, you can even simply do a few extra pattern repeats to make the cowl longer, and stretch it around the shoulders to wear as a shrug!
