Product Details
The Mallards cowl features intarsia, pin tucks and a cute box pleat at the bottom of the slightly elongated front. It’s partly lined to give the fabric more body, keep you warm, and make for more wearing options. The width can be adjusted by the little belt - tabs to hold the belt are knitted in.
There are lots of ways of wearing this: loosely or gathered, top turned down or up, doubled to make a turtle-neck, back to front, belt buttoned at the front or the back.
Stranded intarsia: you should be familiar with both intarsia knitting and stranded knitting (including trapping floats). The smaller details are done in duplicate stitch. If fiddly multi-coloured intarsia knitting is not to your taste, feel free to do the motifs as a whole in duplicate stitch. Motifs are charted.
A big thank you to my lovely hair stylist Antonia for modelling.
