Product Details
The Verna Cowl arose from an exploration of twisted stitches in sock designs, and a desire to see them scaled up a little.
Verna is knit in the round starting from the bottom rib, working through the bias pattern section, to the top rib.
The shaping is achieved through both changing needle sizes and decreasing the number of stitches.
This creates a cowl that sits nicely on the shoulders and closes in around the neck for maximum warmth and cosiness. It is also the perfect shape for a slightly open fronted coat or jacket with which you can also admire the pattern detail of the cowl to its fullest.
While such cowls are quick small projects, producing a stylish but also functional accessory that you’ll keep reaching for depends on the right set up and smooth transitions through the pattern. My attention to these details means you can simply enjoy following the pattern, whether you choose the written or charted instructions.
