Description
The Timberline Cowl is a cozy, asymmetrical accessory inspired by the serene beauty of winter landscapes—from snowflakes and ice crystals to the shifting hues of twilight skies. This elegant design features mosaic slip-stitch colorwork, creating delicate snowflake motifs on a smooth stockinette background. The construction is simple yet striking: knit sideways from end to end with increases along the neck edge, then seamed for a neat polished finish. The Timberline Cowl offers wonderful versatility and style, with the option to add beads at the heart of each snowflake for added sparkle.
This design comes to life with the luxurious texture and depth of Road to China Light, a sport-weight blend of baby alpaca, silk, camel, and cashmere. The yarn’s unparalleled softness and gentle sheen perfectly enhance the intricate snowflake motifs, making the cowl as delightful to wear as it is to knit.
