Designed to be the perfect Ravellenics project!

In honor of the Games taking place in Pyeongchang, South Korea this year, I’ve teamed up with Hazel Knits - an American company featured way back in my first book Knit Local: Celebrating America’s Homegrown Yarns, to bring you a free pattern perfect for your Winter Games knitting.

A Fair Isle cowl worked in the round from the bottom up with corrugated ribbing edges, whimsical sheep motifs as a nod to early American shepherds, traditional stranded colorwork motifs, striping, and an apropos palette, this cowl was designed for both those comfortable with stranded knitting and those ready to take the leap and try it out for the first time.

Knitting up on US 6 circular needles, this cowl has a 24” circumference and a 12” height, making it my favorite size for a cowl that is not only beautiful, but will keep you warm in these chilly months.
