Satellite Cowl

The Satellite Cowl is a beautifully slouchy accessory, designed with a soft, minimalistic aesthetic that makes it perfect for any season. This stylish cowl is worked seamlessly in the round, utilizing a combination of fingering/4 ply yarn and luxurious mohair silk lace/2 ply yarn, held together to create a rich texture and warm fabric. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting out, this pattern offers a fantastic opportunity to enhance your skills and create a fashionable piece.

Yarn Requirements: To make the Satellite Cowl, you will need 437 yards (400 meters) of fingering/4 ply yarn and 437 yards (400 meters) of mohair lace/2 ply yarn. Both yarn types are held together throughout the project, resulting in a cozy yet lightweight fabric. If you’re looking for alternatives, this yarn combination can be replaced with 437 yards (400 meters) of worsted/10 ply or DK/8 ply yarn, allowing for flexibility in your yarn selection.

Needles & Notions: To achieve the perfect gauge, you will need 8 US (5 mm) circular needles that are 24 inches (60 cm) long, as well as 9 US (5.5 mm) and 10 US (6 mm) circular needles of the same length. A stitch marker will help you keep track of your rounds, and a tapestry or yarn needle is essential for weaving in those pesky yarn ends and giving your cowl a polished finish.

Gauge: The gauge for this pattern is 19.5 stitches and 24 rounds per 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette/stocking stitch. Be sure to knit on the smallest needles and in the round, then block your finished piece to achieve the best results.

With the Satellite Cowl, you’ll create a versatile and stylish accessory that can complement any wardrobe. This pattern is perfect for those looking to elevate their knitting projects while ensuring a cozy fit.
