Traditions Cowl was designed to accompany Folklore Yarns 2023 Advent kit of a main colour and 24 colours of their “Traditions” Donegal Aran Tweed.

Also available: Traditions Hat and Traditions Christmas Stocking

This is the perfect winter accessory to knit during the Advent season, or anytime of year! Worked in stranded colourwork using only two colours at a time. The cowl is a snug, cosy “hug” around your neck and with its double thickness, it will help keep out the winter chill.

The pattern has written instructions, with charts for the colourwork. It is knit using a short circular but can be adapted to knit the magic loop method or with dpns.
