Luxurious, practical and warm – three colors of Hikoo SimpiCria yarn are combined together to create this beautiful knit cowl! SimpliCria is Super Baby Alpaca in a worsted chainette construction. Super Baby Alpaca is the finest and softest, and the chainette construction ensures that your finished knitwear will be lightweight and warm.

Perfect for last-minute gift giving, since this knits up quickly on size 9 needles. Pattern is suitable for an adventurous beginner but interesting and fun for advanced knitters too; only one color is used at a time so you don’t need to be a colorwork expert!

Simplicria tends to contract a bit when blocking, gauge provided is after blocking. Your gauge may be closer to 18 sts over 4 inches before blocking.Finished size of cowl is 27” around and 8” tall.

The Wintry Mix pattern was designed by Sharyn Anhalt, the owner of YarnScout in Bozeman MT. Kits are available at YarnScout in 3 different color combinations and include all yarn needed plus a copy of the pattern.
