This sample from my design of the same name was inspired by dreams of the upcoming season. I made this during the bleakest days of an endless February, purposefully selecting colors that herald the hues of spring. Happily, the pattern for the knitting and the embroidery allow for so many palette choices, allowing me to work around the color wheel, mixing and matching as my heart desired. I love how the resulting cowl looks like a beautiful mosaic piece of art!
The shape of this cowl is one of my favorites to make... and to wear! The knitted canvas, comprised of intricate color work, is perfect for embellishments also done by hand. Each of the connecting threads are carefully placed on a rhythmic interval.
Photographing this piece was such a delight! It looks great on a blank mannequin, but even better paired with a favorite winter coat, an easy denim shirt, a cute denim jacket or tucked into a raincoat! As you can see, it can dress up an outfit and/or provide that extra layer of warmth as the seasons transition.
Dimensions:
22" (56cm) circumference at the top of the cowl. 46" (117cm) circumference at the bottom of the cowl. 13" (33cm) long.
Materials:
75% wool, 25% nylon for both the knitting and the embroidery.
Care:
Carefully hand wash and rinse in cold water using a wool wash. Do not mix with other garments. Do not agitate excessively or expose to temperature extremes, or the wool could felt. Gently press (not wring!) out excess water with a towel and dry flat in the original shape. Do not hang to dry. Alternatively, you can use a trusted dry cleaner.
