Rowan
Bard Cowl from New Nordic Unisex Collection is a lovely Fair Isle accessory
that is a perfect beginner’s project for new colorwork knitters. This cowl uses
two contrasting colors of Felted Tweed, and it’s the ideal marriage of Nordic
pattern and classic design with a winding, interlinking chain. Rowan Felted
Tweed is also an excellent choice for any pattern calling for a DK weight - from
fair isle to cables, and you will be pleased with the results. The colorwork
pattern is in chart form only.
