FULL SCARAB BEETLE COWL KIT AVAILABLE FROM 29th APRIL

Welcome to the Scarab Beetle Cowl, a stunning knitting pattern designed exclusively for Woollen Wytch. This luxurious cowl takes its inspiration from the mystical and intricate illustration of the scarab beetle by Woollen Wytch.

With its unique stitch design, this cowl is sure to be a standout piece in your wardrobe. The pattern is perfect for both intermediate and advanced knitters who are looking for a challenging yet rewarding project.

We’ve used our premium, hand-dyed yarn to create a stunning colourway that truly captures the essence of the scarab beetle’s iridescent wings. The soft and warm Blue faced Leicester and Shetland wool is perfect for keeping you cosy on chilly days, while the stitch work pattern adds a touch of interest to any outfit.

Whether you’re knitting this cowl for yourself or as a gift for a loved one, the Scarab Beetle Cowl is a perfect way to showcase your love for all things knitwear and nature-inspired. So grab your needles and let’s get started on this enchanting pattern!
