Rainbow Blowout
This pattern is found in Knit Happy with Self-Striping Yarn and cannot be purchased as an individual download. The book is available for purchase HERE on Indiebound or HERE on Amazon.
At the end of practically every project, I have just a little bit of yarn leftover. The leftovers get thrown into a tub or fall to the bottom of my knitting bag. The rainbow blowout cowl is the perfect project to bring all of your leftover bits and bobs together. Leave this project on your needles and add to it every time you have a pretty little yarn remnant. This cowl includes five distinct stitch motifs that all look great when working in self-striping yarn. I have provided specific instructions for a cowl just like mine, but you can use this pattern as a formula for your own fun cowl. Feel free to mix these sections up. Make them shorter or
longer to fit your yarn and yardage. Add length to your cowl or shorten it. Get the most out of your scraps of self-striping yarn and just have fun!
