Designed to make the most of 1 x 100g skein of aran weight yarn this intriguing pattern uses two differently sized needle tips to create a fun, slip stitch pattern. Variegated yarns such as this Croft aran from West Yorkshire Spinners work particularly well with the slip stitches to show off pops of colour, but it would look equally good in a semi-solid or tonal yarn.
The cowl is knit flat from a provisional cast on and then seamed.
