WINTER BULBS – english pattern

7,50

‘Winter bulbs cowl’ is an easy pattern for practicing colorwork. It is inspired by my beautiful tulip garden that I plant and cherish every winter. It is knitted in the round with circular needles. You’ll never work with more than 2 colors at the same time, so the chart is very easy to follow. Start by knitting a 2×2 ribbing, then work the chart, and finish with a 2×2 ribbing one more time. Yardage is very much adjusted to 1 ball for the Main Color, so please knit your gauge to make sure you’ll have enough yarn.

Read below for more info.
