Foliole is a fun, quick project, perfect for using stash yarn or wild colors together to create a cozy piece inspired by nature. This easy to follow pattern will be a great opportunity to learn or practice two-color stranded knitting! I felt really inspired by these two colors of The Farmer’s Daughter Fiber’s Juicy DK which immediately screamed out “Pair us together!” This cowl is worked in the round, with a fun eyelet rib capping either end of the graphic pattern. It will fly off your needles and when it’s done you’ll be looking for more yarn to knit another!
