Aeque

Aeque, which translates to equally in Latin, is a beautifully crafted gradient cowl that mimics the elegant appearance of an asymmetrical triangular shawl elegantly wrapped around the neck. This unique knitting pattern begins with just one stitch and is worked flat from side to side using the classic Stockinette stitch technique. The design incorporates a simple stripe sequence that seamlessly blends together five vibrant colors of fingering weight yarn, allowing knitters to explore a variety of color palettes. A single seam at the back joins the cowl together, making it a straightforward yet satisfying project.

Aeque is not only a fun and quick knit; it is the perfect project for utilizing small amounts of fingering weight yarn, such as the delightful Anzula’s Squishy Skeinettes. These skeinettes offer an excellent opportunity for knitters to experiment with pastels, monochromatic schemes, or bold color combinations, ensuring that your finished Aeque will be a standout piece in your wardrobe.

The sample featured in this pattern is knit using Anzula Squishy Skeinettes, which comprises 80% Superwash Merino, 10% Cashmere, and 10% Nylon for a soft, luxurious feel. Additionally, we provide alternative yarn options below, giving you the flexibility to choose materials that suit your style and budget. Whether you're a novice knitter or an experienced craftsman, this cowl pattern is designed to be enjoyable and rewarding.
