#347 Celine Cowl
Welcome to my summer travel project – the perfect companion for creating beautiful knitwear at a charming café in Montmartre, Paris. Imagine yourself sipping an espresso while people-watching, all while effortlessly working on this delightful cowl pattern.
This stunning cowl is knit in the round using a luxurious sport-weight alpaca yarn, ensuring a soft and cozy accessory for your wardrobe. The design features an intricate all-over lace stitch pattern that showcases delicate, leaf-like motifs. These enchanting motifs are formed using simple paired yarnovers, complemented by mirrored decreases on either side, making the lace both visually appealing and approachable for knitters of various skill levels.
The lace pattern comes with both a chart and a detailed written description, so it's easy to follow along. With a straightforward 10-row pattern repeat, this lace design is not only easy to learn but also enjoyable to knit. Adding to its charm, the cowl features 2x2 ribbing at the top and bottom, providing beautifully finished edges that elevate the overall appearance of the piece.
Experience the versatility of this cowl! Wrap it around your neck twice for added warmth and style or wear it as a single draped loop for a relaxed look. Either way, you’ll have a fashionable accessory that can effortlessly enhance any outfit.
The sample shown is crafted in a luxurious heathered beige, 100% alpaca yarn, a decadent choice that beautifully complements a wide range of wardrobes. If you decide to knit this cowl in another sport-weight yarn, be sure to select one that offers excellent stitch definition to highlight the captivating lace pattern.
For those interested in recommendations, the sample was knit in DROPS Alpaca; however, several high-quality substitutes are available to fit your preferences.
