Little Belmont Hills
Here’s a little something for around your neck/inside your jacket.
My Belmont Hills shawl was the spark behind this cowl. I loved the play between color and texture stripes in the original shawl, and used this opportunity to play with narrowing the stripes and widening the mesh and garter sections.
The pattern starts with a garter tab and is worked as a flat, triangular shawl through the striped section. Then, it’s joined and worked in the round for the mesh section and garter edging, resulting in a cowl.
You will need a size US 4 (3.5mm) 20” circular needle, and 130 yards each of two colors of fingering weight yarn, as well as three removable stitch markers (two to mark the center stitch and one for when you join in the round).
The finished measurements, after a light steam blocking, are:
- Upper circumference: 20.5”
- Lower circumference: 41”
- Center front: 17.5”
- Center back: 4.25”
Good for the Intermediate/Adventuresome Beginner. You need to know knit, purl, yarn over, ssk, and k2tog.
