Thai Elephants and Beads Silk Blend Lace Knit Cowl
The design for this medium diameter cowl was inspired by Thailand, from the silk yarn to the elephants and temple roofs incorporated in the pattern.
This is a pretty straightforward knit in the round and basic lace knitting skills are all that’s required!
I chose a Manos Silk Blend yarn for the tonal variations of this hand-dyed yarn, and its luxurious feel. The DK weight provides stability to the design, good stitch definition, and plenty of warmth (it’s 70% merino).
Knit on a US 6/4.0mm circular needle, the overall dimensions are 13.5 inches/34cm high; 36 inches/92cm in diameter.
The third photo shows this knit with a 4-ply merino and bamboo blend.
