Little parachutes to the rescue
This pattern is available as a
free Ravelry download
This pattern is based on a stitch by Barbara Walker called “little parachutes” - it’s a great stitch for when you need something to focus on - but not TOO much.
I’ve written the cowl pattern for 2 different gauges so that you can use fingering, sport or DK weight (you can use solid, semi-solid, striping or gradient - all work well).
I’ve also included 2 options for the edging - make them both the same, or make one of each.
And I’ve included written instructions for those who don’t work from charts.
Many thanks to the testers:
