Whimsikal Cowl
The Whimsikal cowl was created as part of a mystery colourwork KAL I hosted on Instagram. My youngest son was pretty upset about having his 7th birthday during the social distancing required to control the Coronavirus pandemic so I designed a bunny hat to cheer him up and I created this cowl for those who liked the bunny design but may not want a hat. This cowl is adjustable in both circumference and height and other yarn weights may also be substituted with lovely results.
This pattern includes full written instructions (including the colourwork) as well as colourwork chart.
Yarn Requirements (smallest circumference: 57cm/ 22.5”)
M (main colour): 70g/2.5oz worsted weight yarn (sample used 70g Malabrigo Worsted which is 192m/210y per 100g/3.53oz col. 28 Blue Surf).
C (contrast colour): 45g /1.6oz worsted weight yarn (sample used 45g Malabrigo Worsted which is 192m/210y per 100g/3.53oz col. 750 Azul Profundo).
Please adjust accordingly for larger sizes, and for different yarn weights.
