This pattern is no longer available individually, but now comes as part of a 3-pattern ebook.

If you purchased the pattern prior to release of the collection you should have received an update allowing you to download the new version for free. Any problems, please get in touch.

A scarf version of the Colourwheel Cowl pattern - when knitted as a scarf, it reminds me of the statue Winged Victory of Samothrace also known as Nike of Samothrace.

There are two stitch counts, so that you can make it with fingering - aran weight.

Minimum 250m/275yds in the yarn of your choice.

But the pattern is fairly flexible, you’ll use percentages to determine when to start shaping the tip.

One end is wider than the other so you can vary the way you wear it.

Works well with self-striping, handspun and some variegated yarns.

Many thanks to the testers for their fabulous knits:
