| Description | I like unexpected combos. Tradition calls for cables to be knit with super-sleek yarns for maximum stitch definition, but I loved the juxtaposition of fuzzy tweedy bits with these sharp twisted stitch cables. The combo is the ultimate in coziness.
Knit in the round from top to bottom, this cowl uses I-Cord edging for extra polish. The cowl gently increases down the center cable spine for a great drape. The end result is that you’ll look amazing with zero styling effort. |

The designer is offering discounted or free pattern(s) to testers
Testers who successfully complete all the test requirements (finishing by the deadline, providing accurate yardage, following the instructions to NOT make modifications without prior approval, creating a Ravelry project page, adding a good photo there, and completing the feedback survey in Yarnpond) by the deadline will receive the final pattern in their Ravelry libraries or emailed to them as a .pdf, whichever they prefer. Successful testers will also be able to choose one other published Kino Knits pattern as a thank you gift, to be delivered the same way. Your rating in Yarnpond will also depend on these same requirements. Thanks! I can't wait to work with you! |
