new design: twighlight's embrace handknit cowl
Introducing Twighlight's Embrace by Sarah Keller, a subtle, 2-color, chevron stitch handknit cowl. This cozy cowl features a beautiful blend of soft pastel hues that evoke the late summer sunsets here in Oregon. Knit in Noro Akari, a soft cotton/silk/mohair/wool blend yarn that feels next-to-the-skin-soft, this chevron cowl is both stylish and comfortable. It's the perfect accessory to add a touch of color and warmth to any outfit, all year round. Wear this cowl long or with a double wrap to cozy up around your neck.
This rhythmic knit uses 1 skein of Noro Akari, a long color change yarn, and 1 skein of Noro Akari Solo, a complementary solid, alternating colors every 2 rows. Knit in the round (in a tube), the provisional cast on allows the ends to be joined seamlessly with Kitchener stitch.
