The Little Leaf Cable Cowl features a beautiful leaf-inspired cable stitch pattern and requires only one 100g skein of aran yarn (at least 166m/180yds). The mini-cowl is fastened with three buttons for a cosy fit around the neck.

The leaf inspired cable pattern combines cables and texture. As the cables begin to grow, the stitch pattern develops a lovely rhythm, promoting a feeling of relaxation and wellness. The design combines stocking stitch and garter stitch backgrounds with four different cable movements. One leaf pattern repeat sets the width of the cowl and the two outer edges are framed with a four stitch cable pattern.

The cable stitches used in this pattern are C3F; C3B; C4F; C4B.

You will also need 3 buttons to fasten the cowl.
