Alpen
The majestic Austrian Alps and baroque vistas of Salzburg are as essential to The Sound of Music as the actors. Alpen brings to life the mountain meadows and hills in a warm, squooshy cowl with two size options: single or double loop. Carefully placed increases and decreases combined with stripes create a modern alpine range, and a leafy lace pattern echoes the meadows.
Skill level: Advanced beginner and up
Skills needed:
- Knitting in the round
- Increases and decreases
Finished size: The pattern includes two sizes: single loop and double loop.
Single loop: approximately 46 inches (117 cm) in circumference and 7 1/2 to 8 inches (19 to 23 cm) tall
Double loop: 69 inches (175 cm) in circumference and
7 1/2 to 8 inches (19 to 23 cm) tall
Yarn requirements:
Single loop requires approximately 110 yards of the main color and 45 yards of a coordinating color. Sample knit with “The Hills Are Alive” as main color and “Do Re Mi” as coordinating color.
Double loop requires approximately 170 yards of the main color and 70 yards of a coordinating color. Sample knit with “Blue Satin Sashes” as main color and “Whiskers on Kittens” as coordinating color.
