Yarn: 400g bulky roving x 400 meters (such as Drops Eskimo or World of wool Royal Roving) in two colors: 200g in MC (main colour) and 200g in CC (contrast color).

If you want a longer cape add a ball of each colour.

The name comes from the stitch: fisherman’s rib, called “costa inglese” in Italy - that is English rib. However in Italian “costa” means rib but also coast… The stitch is fisherman’s rib in two colors worked with circular needles. Enjoy!
