Quietude Cowl - PDF Knitting Pattern

This pattern is also available to purchase on Payhip or Ravelry

The Quietude Cowl is a sister pattern to the Quietude Shawl and uses the same pretty lace stitch.

Inspired by the quiet stillness of nature, the lace pattern has a single bead crowning each lace motif, like little flowers lining a woodland path. Or you can make the cowl without the beads if you prefer.

Knitted in the round for a seamless finish, this accessory is as pretty as it is cozy and is the perfect accessory to take you through the changing seasons.

This cowl uses 1.75oz / 50g or 218yds / 200m of yarn so if you have knitted the Quietude shawl and started a 100g / 400m skein for the border then this project is ideal for using up the rest of your yarn.

If you have not yet knitted the Quietude shawl and would like to there is a 40% discount code for the shawl included in the pattern.

Video tutorials are linked for all of the stitches used, including how to add the beads with a crochet hook.
