Free Pattern: Mogul Cowl & Infinity Scarf Recipe

my Mogul Cowl & Infinity Scarf Recipe is now available for free on Ravelry.

(C) breeanelyse

the Mogul Cowl & Infinity Scarf Recipe is written to serve as a guide for creating any size cowl using the angular basket weave stitch pattern. though the featured samples and pattern recipe show two sizes: Small and Large, it is up to the knitter to determine the finished size and fabric drape for their cowl.

© knittygrrlkuUsing a variety of yarns and needle sizes, this cowl’s stitch pattern is a multiple of 8 stitches, making it simple for the knitter to customize based on desired gauge and finished dimensions.

(C) NoodieKnits

The pattern recipe is written with instructions shown as Small (Large). If you choose to knit a size other than these, you will need to do a bit of math, but you can use this recipe as a general guideline. 

I recommend yarns ranging from DK to chunky weight. You will need between 200 – 400 yards depending on gauge and finished measurements.

thanks to my testers, knittygrrlku, NoodieKnits, and h82purl!

looking for testers - mogul cowl & infiniti scarf

well, it looks as though i successfully completed 3-4 days of the knitting blog week! the balance of my week got crazy with work and errands, so i was a naughty blogger and i did not post - oopps!

today i'm sharing with you a preview of one of my new patterns - the mogul cowl & infiniti scarf. the pattern includes instructions on how to create a close-fitting cowl and a long infiniti scarf you can wear in many ways - wrapped around the neck loosely or swirled around a few times, or as a hooded cowl.

i'm currently looking for test knitters to knit both the small and large versions. the small version uses about 200 yards of heavy worsted/chunky weight yarn. the large version uses about 400 yards of light worsted weight yarn.

if you are interested in testing, please PM me on Ravelry. details for testers are available in the BreeanElyse group on Ravelry.
