Twist Latte Cowl is a squishy soft reversible cowl with a honeycomb like texture. It is knit using bulky weight yarn held double with mohair, making it warm and quick to knit. If you love extra cozy accessories, then you will appreciate the warmth and creative stitch pattern in the Twist Latte Cowl. The stitch pattern is easy to memorize and intuitive. It has a playful combination of slipped stitches with yarn overs using a modified waffle brioche stitch. There are 3 sizes to choose from and the pattern is easily customized to preference, suggestions are made in the pattern for length and height of cowl. The cowl begins with a provisional CO, is knit flat and seamed together at the end. You may substitute your Cast On method and directions are provided for that option. There are video tutorials to guide you with the skills needed to complete the project. The design was created in collaboration with Vida Lifestyle’s Coffee 2.0 Collection, a collection of rich and unique artisan hand dyed yarns. This cowl makes a wonderful addition to your handmade Fall and Winter wardrobe!
