Gathered Cowl

I was delighted when Cygnet asked me to design something in their beautiful Boho Spirit yarn for a Black Sheep Wools retreat weekend. This incredibly soft roving yarn comes in an array of fabulous, variegated shades with a subtle sheen, which shows off the stitch patterns used in this cowl beautifully. The idea of people gathering together on the retreat to knit this is also partly what gives the cowl its name. Shaped by simple decreases this conical cowl is designed to lie in cosy folds around your neck and shoulders. The main body of the cowl features the Estonian 3 into 3 gathered stitch, a pretty stitch often found in traditional Estonian lace patterns. This was the other contributing factor to the naming of the cowl....

Stitchy Saturday - well I finally did it! Seven years after starting the set (yes, you read that right 🫣), I FFO’ed the last two of the by Lizzie Kate last night and my winter shelves look the way I first imagined them!
To be honest I actually finished cross stitching Let it Snow and Frosty Friends at the end of January ‘25 and they have sat on my desk waiting to be FFO’ed all year 🫣
Apparently it was January ‘19 when I completed Snow Fun, Snowed In, and the two other designs, Winter Blessings by Glendon Place and the Let it Snow on the lilac background that I can’t remember the details of 🤦🏻‍♀️. My stitchy time rapidly decreased/vanished from 2019 onwards and I have quite a few unfinished cross stitch projects that I would like to get completed over the next couple of years… hopefully this won’t be the last UFO I actually finish this year!
