Ruthven Cowl
Cabled waves ripple across the surface of this generously sized cowl, suggesting the fresh beauty of the loch it’s named for. The angled seam adds dramatic interest and a softly spreading shape. Lustrous BFL/silk from The Wool Kitchen makes for a fluid, glowing fabric to wrap you in comfort after a swim - or any other time.
Size
Depth: 41 cm / 16 in
Circumference at bottom edge: 147.5 cm / 58 in
Circumference at neck edge: 55.5 cm / 22 in
Yarn
The pattern requires 640 m / 700 yds DK yarn. I recommend using a rounded yarn that will give good stitch definition to the finished cowl. The finished fabric should have good drape at the stated gauge.
Sample is made using:
The Wool Kitchen BFL Silk DK, 55% Blue Faced Leicester, 45% Silk, 212 m / 232 yds per 100g skein.
Colourway: Wild Swimming, 3 skeins
