Purchase and Download:Â Sweet Seattle on Ravelry
This cowl is designed to accent the color and texture of the handspun yarn. It has an hourglass shape to increase the drape of the heavy yarns. By mixing a neutral-toned bulky yarn with the colorful super-bulky handspun, the slubby, wispy texture of the handspun pops all the more.
(NB: the pattern is written for both weights of yarn, but the Ravelry database did not allow me to list two weights on this project page; likewise, the total yardage (155-160) adds the approx. 110 yards of bulky weight with the 50 yards of super-bulky weight.)
