Lorelei Cowl

Introducing the featured knitting pattern for Sea Bre's Yarn shop during the 2023 Puget Sound LYS Tour. (Find more details at [www.lystour.com][1]) Nothing better than a cozy neck to fight off a chilly day. This lovely cowl evokes a scale like pattern that makes me think of mermaids and fantasy creatures. (*The Lorelei is a mythical siren that lures sailors on the Rhine River in Germany.*) This stitch pattern works up quickly and is easy to memorize. One skein is just enough to make a small cozy neck warmer. Two skeins makes this cowl long enough to pull up as a hood to buffer your ears against cold winter winds. No matter the option you choose, this will become a favorite accessory **Yarn:** *1 skein version:* 210yds Worsted [sample used Malabrigo Rios (210yd (192m)/100g)] *2 skein version:* 420 yds Worsted [sample used 2 skeins Malabrigo Rios] **Needles and Notions:** US 7 (4.5mm) 24” circular (or size needle to get gauge) 3 Stitch markers Tapestry needle **Gauge:** 18 st/ 28 rows = 4” **Finished Measurements:** *1 skein version:* 12 3/4” w x 8 1/2” h before blocking (After blocking: 13” w x 8 3/4” h) *2 skein version:* 12 3/4” w x 18” h before blocking (After blocking: 13” w x 21” high)
