Endelaus Cowl
The Endelaus cowl pattern is the first in a series of ‘Endelaus accessories’ for members of ‘Skeindeer’s matchy-matchy accessory club’. It features a modified endelaus (endless) pattern repeat that originates in the village of Selbu in Trøndelag, Norway. The cowl is worked bottom-up in the round, and can easily be modified both length-wise and in circumference.
I hope you will enjoy this pattern, and if you need any help, please do not hesitate to contact me in my Ravelry group ‘Skeindeer Knits’. It’s the best place for swift support.
