Cervus
This deeply textured and cozy cowl was designed to show off a handspun gradient yarn, flowing smoothly from one color to the next. It is framed by a lacy rib, which flows into a lace pattern which is left unblocked to accentuate the texture.
While I knit it with a 9-step gradient, it can be knit with any solid or semi-solid yarn; or gradient or self-striping yarn with long color changes.
It is a satisfying knit, and quick enough to grace the necks of all of your loved ones!
gauge in charted pattern: 19 sts/24 rounds = 4 inches in main pattern unblocked.
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Circumference: 25 inches
Depth: 11.25 inches
