The Gwen Cowl - PDF Knitting pattern

The Gwen cowl is a quick, fancy knit with a twist - pun definitely intended! A great gateway into using mosaic knitting techniques in the round. Mosaic knitting has become one of my all time favourite ways to play with colour and pattern and if you’ve not tried it yet, honestly… you should it’s so simple and SO rewarding.

This listing is for a digital PDF of the knitting pattern and NOT a finished garment. You should receive your download shortly after purchase.

This project uses aran weight yarn and this sample was knitted in Rosarios cappuccino aran (50g, 95 metres / 104 yards, 70% extra fine wool and 30% milk fibre).
