Summer is right around the corner! The Gathering Flowers cowl was designed to celebrate the late spring blooms that usher us into summer. Using a combination of uncomplicated lace, and delicate colorwork, this cowl is the perfect little project for your summer knitting bag. The Gathering Flowers pattern is bursting with resources. With video tutorials to help you get started, and tips on how to swatch & check your lace gauge, this pattern was designed to support you. It also includes a complete yardage breakdown of each motif, so you can personalize your cowl to fit your stash. Gather your yarn like you gather your flowers, picking only the colors that make you the happiest! Worked SEAMLESSLY from the top down, it knits up quickly (like any good cowl should), but wears like a hassle-free shawl. Unlike traditional tube cowls that rumple into a pile of knitting around your neck, this shawl-shaped construction lets your knitting shine by creating a triangular front and shortened back. The shape is wonderful, wearable, and just plain fun to knit.
