Botanical Sampler Cowl

$10.00

PDF KNITTING PATTERN. PRICES ARE IN USD.

The Botanical Sampler is a lace cowl that explores some classic motifs to give a fun, rewarding project. I imagined the Agave Lace as climbing leaves and the Shale Lace as wildflowers and grasses waving in a meadow. This cowl hits that perfect balance of engaging and relaxing, elegant and basic, with a cozy shape and size that’ll keep you warm without getting in the way.

This pattern was originally the August pattern for the Gauge Dye Works Summer 2020 Yarn + Pattern Club. It’s now available to everyone. Get the yarn from Gauge Dye Works.
