Designed for the 2nd Annual Bay Area Yarn Crawl, Filoli Cowl is an easy-to-wear accessory that offers the comfort of a cozy triangular shawl without the need to style it. It is named after designer Ksenia Naidyon's favorite historic house and garden in the SF Bay Area.
The cowl features two types of mosaic patterns and garter stitch. Looking more complex than it is, all colorwork requires working with just one color per row, and the whole cowl is almost completely worked with knit and slipped stitches (very little purling, yay!)
The pattern is available for purchase through Ravelry.
The yarn kits contain two balls of two colors each:
- 4 balls of Rowan Alpaca Soft DK OR
- 4 balls of MODE at Rowan Alpaca Wool OR
- 4 balls of Isager Eco Baby
Gauge: 23 sts. and 46 rows over 4 in. in garter stitch, unblocked on size US 6 needles, or size needed to get gauge
