Product Details
The look of the herringbone stitch is so timeless and traditional, as well as suitable for men AND women! I wanted to make a cowl with a stitch that was reminiscent of a tweedy, beautiful Herringbone fabric, but not super complicated to make. So, while I certainly didn't invent the idea of a Herringbone patterned scarf or cowl, I think with this pattern, I have perfected it!
This cowl is knit flat with the longer sides as your cast on and bind off. The finished project can be left as is and worn as a scarf, or the ends can be seamed to form a cowl (as shown). Because of the selvedge edge on this cowl, your seam will not be invisible, but when worn at the back of the neck, it will be covered when the cowl is wrapped around itself.
Some things to note: -The cast on and bind off are time consuming, but totally worth the effort. -The seam will not be invisible. -Mistakes will show and you will need to block the finished project for good results, but a simple blocking will do.
