Pattern - Potter
[tabblock]
[tab1:
The Potter cowl, inspired by the life and work of author Beatrix Potter, is a cosy textured cowl perfect for keeping you snug on a chilly day, with the double layer providing added warmth. The simple twist stitch - also used in the [productlink: Beatrix vest = pattern-beatrix :productlink] - creates an intriguing surface pattern. The cowl is knit in the round and commences with a provisional cast-on to enable the work to be joined into a tube. As the main pattern is worked, needle sizes are changed to create shape without having to add or remove stitches.
Potter is knitted using [link: Susan Crawford Barn = /collections/barn :link] a DK weight, worsted spun yarn that is delightfully smooth and soft, created from a blend of Jacobs and Shetland fibres spun exclusively for us in a nearby Yorkshire mill.
Potter is shown here in two colour ways.
Colourway One uses shade:
[productlink: Puddle = barn-puddle :productlink].
Colourway two uses shade:
[productlink: Plum Jam = barn-plum-jam :productlink].
Samples shown in size 3 worn with 2.5 cm / 1 in positive ease (on Ruth) and with 7.5 cm / 3 in negative ease (on Susan).
The pattern includes instructions for one size and contains both clear written pattern directions, together with charted instructions for cable pattern. :tab1]
