Equilibria Compagne - PDF knitting pattern

Equlibria Compagne is the companion to Woolly’s Equilibria Hat pattern. Featuring short row colourwork and worked sideways in panels, this pattern will love just about any yarn combination you care to throw together.

Within each pattern you’ll find instructions for a Regular Cowl, an Over-Sized Cowl, and a Scarf. Given their construction, they’re highly customisable and you’ll find notes included for that.

Cowl/Scarf Description

Equilibria Compagne is a sideways knit cowl or scarf. It uses short-row colourwork to create a motif of alternating leaves on stalks, which are then repeated all around. It’s worked in garter stitch throughout.
