Fair Isle Diamonds Cowl

Discover the beauty of traditional knitting with this stunning cowl featuring intricate Fair Isle patterning. Crafted using a baby weight, 100% wool Norwegian yarn (light fingering), this pattern allows for creativity in color choice and yarn selection. Whether you prefer bold hues or soft pastels, the selection is entirely yours, although we recommend following the finished size and gauge as essential guidelines when opting for your preferred yarn.

This cowl’s unique design not only keeps you warm but also adds a fashionable touch to any outfit, making it an essential accessory in your wardrobe. The optional picot bind-off technique is designed to soften the geometric patterns, giving the cowl a delicate finish. However, if you prefer a more structured look, a traditional stitch-over-stitch bind-off will create a firm and polished top edge.

The light blue color (referred to as Color A) serves as the main color for this beautiful piece and requires nearly the entire 175 meters from the yarn ball, emphasizing the need for good planning in your project.

Please note that there was a minor error in the instructions regarding the finishing touches. A reference to the wet bind off was corrected to the intended terminology of wet blocking. This update has been made to the PDF for your convenience.
