Introducing Scattered Petals

Scattered Petals is a bandana cowl knit in the round. It features a dusting of assigned pooling petals on a two-color brioche rib background. Choose two skeins of fingering weight yarn, one of which is dyed for assigned pooling. Knitting begins in the round at the bottom with a contrast color brioche rib edging. Simple shaping at the center front creates the look of a triangle shawl.

The pattern offers the cowl in two sizes, depending on how much coverage you like.

I used Yarn Snob’s A Good Fingering for my cowls, in Black Orchid (pooling color) and Wicked Green. I love, love, love how this turned out.

    Love, love, love this new design. Can it be enlarged for a shawl?

    • It’s a cowl, and it’s knit in the round. This particular assigned pooling motif does not lend itself to being knit flat, so I can’t make it into a shawl. There are instructions for making the cowl larger if that is something that you are interested in.
