Lavender Lullaby is a delectable little cowl with a simple but effective stitch pattern that looks amazing in variegated as well as solid yarns. This one-skein wonder is perfect for showcasing that special hand-dyed skein of sport weight in your stash. Cleverly placed decreases and increases mimic the look of cables — without the need to do actual cabling.
Lavender Lullaby is knit in the round using a short circular needle or in magic loop with long circular needles. The length of the cowl can be easily adjusted to your liking... or to use up all of that precious one-off skein! Instructions for adjusting the length are provided.
