Autunno (Autumn in Italian) is a multifunctional piece that can be worn as a cowl, an infinity scarf or as a vest.
And it is reversible, too! So it has multiple ways you can wear it.
Autunno is worked in a dynamic two-color brioche pattern that makes the fabric undulate, mimicking the movements of falling leaves blown by the wind. Brioche stitch worked flat is a little complex to handle at first, but has the big pro of having 3 rest rows for every “pattern” row.
This design requires attention, but the result is rewarding!
Size: 8×51″ (20×130 cm).
Size is easily customizable, either using a different yarn weight and needle sizes or working more repeats.
Yarn
MC:Lana Grossa Alta Moda Cashmere Fine (80% wool, 10% cashmere, 10% Polyamid; 350 yds 320 m/50 gr) Color 109 CC/pink/raspberry/antique pink, 2 skeins.
CC:Madelinetosh Tosh DK (100% merino; 225 yds 206 m/100 gr) Color Pink clay, 1 skein.
Needles
Size US 5 (3.75 mm): 24” circular.
This pattern requires a circular needle as you will be sliding sts to the other side of the needle. A flat needle will not work.

Gauge
25 sts and 35 rows = 4” 10 cm in St st after wet blocking.
25 sts and 40 rows = 4” 10 cm in two-color brioche stitch.
Gauge is not critical for this project
