I've got so many halloween nerds in my life, the second I saw this pattern I KNEW I had to make a cowl kit available as soon as possible.
This kit includes:
- 5 minis (200g total) Seattle Sky Dyeworks Temporum
- 1 Surprise Stitch Marker
- Printed Cowloween pattern by Stephanie Lotven, Ravelry download code included
Designer Notes:
Happy Cowloween! It’s time for ghosts and pumpkins. It’s time for candy and dressing up! It’s time to bust out your orange yarn and your broom! It’s Halloween!!! In case you didn’t know, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this time of year. In October, I want to dress up for Halloween every single day. Since it isn’t practical to break out a costume every morning, I’ve designed a Halloween cowl. This little accessory gives me (and you and the kiddos) a chance to get in the Halloween spirit as often as your Halloween heart desires.
Worked SEAMLESSLY from the top down, Cowloween knits up quickly (like any good cowl should), but wears like a hassle-free shawl. Unlike traditional tube cowls that rumple into a pile of knitting around your neck, this shawl-shaped construction lets your knitting shine by creating a triangular front and shortened back. The shape is wonderful, wearable, and just plain fun to knit.
This Cowl Includes:
- Top-Down, Seamless Construction
- Shawl-Shaped Wearability
- Simple, Fun Colorwork
- Charts & Written Instructions
- Endless Stash-Busting Opportunities
