Every crafter needs a hand knit bowl or two in their creative
space. Herring Bowls use dense herringbone stitch in pure
wool to create warm, soft containers that give a cozy feel to
an office or home.

Each bowl is worked flat, in a rectangle of basic herringbone
in two colors. Once knit, stitches are picked up across the
top and finished, and picked up across the bottom and
worked in Garter stitch in the round, using decreases to
reach the center.
