'The Bohemian Cowl' - PDF Knitting Pattern for Fingering/4-Ply Yarn
You will receive a PDF knitting pattern to create your very own 'Bohemian Cowl’.
The stranded design is fully charted, and there are some written instructions in English.
Needles: 60cm/24” circular needle in size US6 (4mm), or whatever needle size allow you to
achieve gauge. And if you prefer, feel free to use magic loop or DPN’s. I am a tighter knitter, so if you knit more loosely, you may want to go down a needle size.
You will need a second needle in the same size, or smaller, for when it comes time to graft the ends together.
Crochet Hook: 5mm or larger.
Yarn: I used the following colours and quantities of ‘Fat Fingering’ for the sample, a woollen-spun fingering weight from my own hand-dyed business ‘Bona Yarns’:
Colour A - Eva: approx. 120 metres
Colour B - Flint: approx. 95 metres
Colour C - Pebble: approx. 95 metres
Colour D - Dunwich: approx. 150 metres
Colour E - Along Came A Spider: approx. 135 metres
Colour F - Bluebottle: approx. 90 metres
Colour G. Steal: approx. 135 metres
Colour H - The Deep: approx. 135 metres
Colour I - Drift: approx. 120 metres
Colour J - Farthing: approx. 115 metres
Colour K - Roasted Pumpkin: approx. 80 metres
Colour L - Turmeric: approx. 120 metres
Colour M - The Colonel: approx. 75 metres
Colour N - Hot Dog: approx. 85 metres
Feel free to use other yarns of a similar weight, of course.
Gauge: 27 stitches by 31 rows in stranded colour work (post-blocking). Gauge is not critical, but working at a smaller/larger gauge will, of course, result in a smaller/larger garment and affect how much yarn you use.
Finished Dimensions: 33cm (approx 13”) width, 195cm (approx 76” circumference).
You will also need: Darning needle to weave in ends, stitch marker(s), scissors and scrap yarn in a fingering weight for the provisional cast-on
