Pattern Northline Cowl

Let the wind carry you and follow your instincts. The Northline Cowl will keep you company with the cosy warmth of our Big Merino Hug. Its geometric colourwork pattern in the tones Caramel, Deep Ocean and Sand brings the striking clarity and charm of the North to your needles and your outfits. Explore interesting knitting techniques such as Latvian braids, and enjoy a little knitting pleasure that provides extra warmth and an exciting colour choice – and an unusual shape thanks to the wide slit hem.   

The Northline Cowl is worked top down in the round, beginning with a 1x1 Waste Yarn Tubular Cast-On followed by 1x1 ribbing. The two-colour stranded colourwork section features two Latvian braids—a right-leaning braid followed by a left-leaning braid. After the colourwork, you split the cowl at the side seams and work a 3x2 ribbing flat to create the front and back panel of the wide hem separately. 

The cowl's full circumference is 53,5 cm (21 in), while the height is 38 cm (15 in).   

You need 3 skeins of Big Merino Hug: 1 skein each in Colour A (40 g), Colour B (95 g) and Colour C (26 g).
