Welted Cowl Using Rowan Felted Tweed

The Design “Who doesn't love some tweed around the neck?” We noticed that some knitters were knitting the cowl from our Churchmouse Classics Easy Folded Poncho separately, which gave us an idea for a separate cowl with added purl welts for a sculptural effect. Nora’s wearing the cowl with a matching set of Churchmouse Classics Welted Fingerless Gloves. If you knit this small size cowl in Rowan Felted Tweed, you’ll have plenty of yarn remaining to knit a pair of gloves. (Just head over to the Welted Fingerless Gloves page for the pattern.) And you can grab the Welted Cowl & Infinity Loop pattern (if you don't already own it) and pick your yarn above. The Details FINISHED SIZE Cowl: Approx. 24"/61cm around x 11"/28cm deep, with welts flattened. YARN 2 skein(s) Rowan Felted Tweed (191 yds/175m each). Shown in Color 181 Mineral.
