Donna Cowl Kit - Falklands Merino Lace

A delicate cowl, knitted in a selection of traditional Shetland lace patterns with a pretty edging that can be blocked into soft or more dramatic points. Suitable for knitters with some experience of lace, the skill level for this design is classified as Intermediate.

Knitted using a lace weight yarn, there are pattern stitches on the majority of rows but the cowl is worked in the round, and therefore with the knit side facing.

The pattern could easily be adapted to make a larger circumference cowl if required (more yarn would be required).

The sample was worked in Purple Dahlia on 2.75mm and 3.5mm needles.  Finished measurements after blocking: 60cm (24 inches) in circumference, 30cm (12 inches) deep.

The kit includes the printed pattern and a 50g (400m) skein of our hand-painted 100% Falkland Islands Merino lace weight yarn, sufficient to make the cowl as written.

The pattern is presented both in chart form and as fully written instructions, and also includes instructions for a 4-ply version of the cowl.
