Half Hidden

Introducing the Half Hidden Cowl, a stylish and versatile accessory that pairs perfectly with any outfit. Crafted using one skein each of two different fingering weight yarns, this cowl is not only simple to knit but also suitable for both beginners and advanced knitters alike. The original design features a beautiful combination of Handmaiden Fine Yarns SeaSilk, a luxurious fingering yarn, and Maidenhair, a delicate sport weight mohair silk blend, for a stunning texture and drape. For your own version, consider pairing yarns like Lichtfaden Pure Silk and Silk Halo, or Fyberspates Scrumptious 4ply and Faery Wings. Other fantastic combinations include Green Tea Yarns Ginseng 4ply with Rooibos and Skein Queen Selkino alongside Ripple.

This cowl is worked in the round from the top down, allowing for a seamless finish that enhances its wearability. The design features areas of smooth yarn that are artfully half-hidden by joined ridges of fuzzy yarn (or another smooth yarn, if you prefer). This creates a unique visual effect while maintaining comfort and warmth. The edge of the cowl is thoughtfully divided into points that sit at the front, back, and over each shoulder, effectively blocking any cold draughts and keeping you snug and cozy.

The main body of the Half Hidden Cowl is easily repeatable, which means you can customize the length to suit your personal preference—make it as long or as short as you wish! This adaptability ensures that it’s perfect for layering over a sweater or wearing alone as a statement piece.

With its simple construction, stylish design, and exceptional warmth, the Half Hidden Cowl is a fantastic addition to your knitting repertoire. It’s easy to knit, effortless to wear, and will keep you beautifully toasty all winter long!
