Cloud Illusions

$5.00

Cloud illusions is a simple little double-stranded cowl knit in the round and worked with 2 different colors of sport-weight yarn at the same time to create a neat marled affect. It also features an easy chevron eyelet stitch panel. This is a great project especially if you are brand new to working with 2 strands of yarn held together (i.e, double-stranding)!

Video tutorials are provided for how to double-strand as well as how to work the eyelet stitch.

Knit in the beautiful Manos del Uruguay Serena, it’s the perfect weight and drape for springtime. But it’s also a great stash-busting project – have fun playing around with different color combos!

This is the PDF version of the pattern. After going through the checkout you will receive an email with a downloadable PDF link. If you prefer to purchase through Ravelry, click here.
