Blue Sky Fibers Northern Vest & Cowl PDF

Cabled and cozy, the Northern Vest & Cowl are a perfect combination for staying warm this winter! Each worked in Woolstok North, a thick single-ply wool with a soft feel and beautifully heathered colors, your finished pieces will be perfect for even the coldest days. The Northern cowl is knit flat in a striking cable pattern, with the option to use a provisional cast-on and graft the ends together or to join the loop with a seam. The Northern Vest is also knit flat, worked from the bottom up to the armholes in one piece, where the back and fronts are completed separately before joining at the shoulder with a three-needle bind-off. Minimal finishing is required for this project, with tiny seams joining the armhole trims and button loops adding the final details. For cozy, comfortable pieces that will ward off even deep freeze temperatures, the Northern Vest & Cowl has got your covered! Cable patterns are both charted and written out.
