Eye of the Tigress Cowl
Wrap the stunning Tigress around your neck to make a bold fashion statement while feeling safe, protected, and courageous all at once. This eye-catching accessory not only enhances your wardrobe but also showcases your knitting skills.
The exquisite feature square in this chic design is achieved through the innovative technique of Mosaic knitting. This method involves slipping stitches and working with just one color per row, making it much simpler than traditional stranded knitting. If you've never tried Mosaic knitting before, this is the perfect starting point for you!
The Mosaic square pattern is fully detailed, offering both written row-by-row instructions as well as a chart for those who prefer the visual guide. You get to choose which format works best for you, making this project accessible for knitters of varying skill levels.
Measurements: After gentle blocking, the neck opening measures 50 cm/20”, which stretches comfortably to 64 cm/25”. The center depth is 35.5 cm/14”, and the back neck seam is 12.5 cm/5”. This ensures a gorgeous fit for your new neckwear.
Gauge: Before blocking, achieve a gauge of 28 stitches x 52 rows to create a 10 cm/4” square in Garter stitch. Be sure to check your gauge for the best results!
Yarns used: A luxurious blend of Hobbii Unicorn Solids Fingering (14wpi), composed of 75% merino wool and 25% polyamide, makes this design not only beautiful but also warm and soft. Each 100-gram skein offers 400 m/437 yds of knitting pleasure.
