Dover Castle Cowl
Dover Castle Cowl is a beautifully designed knitting pattern that begins at the neck and features a unique top-down triangular shape. After crafting a few rows, this design is seamlessly joined in the round, transforming into a stunning, comfortable cowl that is perfect for layering in any wardrobe.
This cozy cowl is not only a delight to wear, but its adjustable design allows you to modify the neck opening to suit your comfort level and the temperature outside. Whether you're looking to stay warm in chilly weather or prefer a more relaxed fit, the Dover Castle Cowl can be tailored to your needs.
Featuring the same exquisite lace pattern originally created for the beloved Dover Castle Shawl pattern, this cowl promises both elegance and functionality. The intricate lacework is primarily executed on right-side (RS) rows, with just a few simple knit stitches added to the plain, purl wrong-side (WS) rows, ensuring that your work progresses smoothly while showcasing your knitting skills.
Please note: the lace pattern is available in charted form only, catering to those who enjoy knitting from charts and want to elevate their crafting experience.
Yardage Required: To complete the Dover Castle Cowl, you will need approximately 250 yards (230 meters) of bulky or chunky weight yarn. The samples shown were crafted using Cascade Eco Merino in the beautiful colorways of Silver and Mushroom. These generously sized, 250-gram skeins allow you to create two gorgeous cowls, with just under half a skein used for each design.
Sizing: The sample cowl measures an impressive 18 inches (46 cm) in depth at the front, seamlessly transitioning from the top neck edge to the dramatic point. This size makes it a versatile accessory that can be styled in various ways to suit any occasion.
Whether you are an experienced knitter or a budding enthusiast, the Dover Castle Cowl pattern is a must-try project that adds beauty and warmth to your collection. Discover the joy of knitting this stunning cowl and enjoy the compliments that come with it!
