| Job type | Test knit |
| Description | This test is for the LYON TRABOULES pattern using the Jill Wolcott Knits Pattern Tailor (an online tool). Ribbons of color in a comfortably squishy cowl with a stylish twist. Begin with Cat Bordhi's moebius cast-on and work horizontal ribs and eyelets through the singular magic of a moebius. Flexibility is a key element here: end the horizontal ribs when you need to accommodate your yarn quantity. Use the Yardage Calculator to estimate yarn needed, and follow either written instructions or Action charts — or use both! Even more flexibility is available when you enter a few key numbers as directed into the Lyon Traboules Pattern Tailor, to create your personal version to suit your gauge, yarn, and preferences! This is perfect for using up bits of yarn left over from favorite projects. |
