Deer in the Meadow Cowl

Deer perk their ears and graze in a meadow around this pretty cowl. Knit with five colors, this cowl will keep your neck warm without adding heavy bulk. The design features two Fair Isle pattern blocks framing the stranded deer in the meadow pattern. While the stranded knitting design calls for up to four colors at once, the cowl itself is simple, with no shaping or complex stitches. A second version of the chart is included with only two colors per row, for those who choose to use the duplicate stitch method to add extra colors after knitting is complete.

This is an intermediate level pattern. Knitters should have experience with stranded knitting technique, including long carries, and following a color chart. The cowl is sized to fit the average adult.
