Wavy Lines Cowl

Wavy Lines Cowl

This is a remarkably simple yet pretty Cowl, which involves only very basic repeating cable & lace stitch patterning, so that even an adventurous beginner who now wants to master more advanced knitting techniques could be encouraged to turn their hand to it, or for the more experienced knitter it offers enough interest without being too challenging. it’s in a long loop style so you can wrap it twice around the neck for extra cozy warmth, which also helps with making it wider than it seems but the Width / Depth can also be adjusted as you will see below under Finished measurements.

The matching hat is also available.

For the Sample I used: Elodie in ‘Muse’ –Sublime Yarns, 50g, 126 yards (115 meters)

(100% Wool - Merino)

Requires approx. 323 yards / 295 metres DK weight yarn

The yarn usage amount is an approximate guide and is in fact a little over the actual amount I used, which was in fact 123g, but I have rounded it up to 128g in view of differences between knitters gauge and such, and so as to give you a few grams room

This patterns techniques include: Casting on, binding off, knitting, purling. Includes increases and decreases by making Knit2togethers, Slip Slip Knit, and working yarnovers, to create pattern stitches. It

also involves creating cable patterning, either by using a Cable Needle/Double pointed

needle to slide stitches onto and hold at back or front of your work - or without one if you

feel able to and your yarn easily allows for it - in order to work the subsequent stitches and

therefore ‘swap’ the order of stitches worked and therefore the cable pattern
