The LoveLetter Cowl is a beautiful piece to knit up for autumn/winter. It’s worked using only 2 x 100g skeins of Cowgirlblues Merino DK wool.
It’s suitable for an intermediate or experienced knitter as the two colour cast-on and rib technique takes some co-ordination and getting used to. So you should be comfortable with working in the round and open to using both hands to hold the two different colours.
It’s really worth the effort to knit this stunning signature piece.
When considering your yarn colours pick a strong contrast or you won’t see the details of the rib.
If you like the reversible effect and want to achieve it with your knit remember to use your multi-colour yarn for the knit stitches. This will become the float yarn on the back.
Merino DK is a great yarn for this project and the end result is a warm and cosy cowl that will definitely be well used.
We’ve chosen three colour combinations and set up a custom option to make it easy for you to choose your own colours also:
– Under Pressure with Charcoal (one of the samples pictured)
– Say A Little Prayer with Cape Storm (one of the samples pictured)
– Bette Midler / African Violet
The pattern is written for 4.5mm / 7US knitting needles but you may need to go up or down a needle size to achieve the gauge.
It’s a one size pattern that should measure ~25cm/9″ across at the neck, ~40cm/16″ long and ~50cm/20″ across at the bottom edge.
