I have chosen to set-up a pay what works system, which is a way to ensure a balance between financial accessibility and a fair evaluation of the designing work. All my patterns are listed at full price, which best reflects the work put into them ; if need be, use one of the codes below that works best for you!

This pattern was designed for a friend of mine who is a fairly new knitter and knows only knits and purls. It gathers interesting yet easy textures using only these two basic stitches, and features detailed instructions on how to create this piece. The result is this lovely cowl which looks much more complicated than it really is – a great way to impress your friends even when you are a beginner!

This pattern is beginner-friendly: if you can knit and purl, this cowl is for you! ♥


Yarn: 300m of Drops Lima or any yarn of equivalent weight
I would recommend using a solid or semi-solid colour so that the textures show even better!

Needles: 5mm needles, either straight, double pointed or circular; whichever you feel most comfortable with!

Gauge: 19 stitches x 13 rows for a 10x10cm lil’ square

Finished measurements: height = 36cm / diameter = 64cm

The pattern includes instructions for knitting this piece flat or in the round, in English or French. Make sure to use the right file! :)
The different textures are both written and charted, so that you can choose what is clearer for you!

Come along friends, your knitting journey awaits!
