The Millennium Falcon Cowl
First introduced in A New Hope, the Millennium Falcon is the legendary ship captained by Han Solo. Outfitted with smuggler’s holds and heavily modified over the years, the Millennium Falcon is easily recognized by its distinctive shape and noted for its speed and agility. As asset to many of the characters fighting against the Empire and the First Order in the films, it is perhaps the most famous spaceship in cinema and holds a special place in the hearts of Star Wars fans everywhere.
Knit in the round in a tube, this unisex stranded-colorwork cowl begins with a provisional cast on. After the charts are worked, the ends are grafted together, creating a seamless loop. This cowl is knit in high-contrast colors with a sparkly accent yarn, making the Falcon look like she is flying through twinkling stars in space.
