Talitha Kuomi started the design for this cowl knitting pattern with a question: just how streamlined & modern a piece could stockinette stitch be sculpted into? Sirkel (which means circle in Norwegian) uses outside-the-box construction to create a fabric that holds its architectural shape without help from wires or interfacing. Kits available here.

This knitting pattern designed by Laura Chau is a fun opportunity to pair a beautiful handpainted yarn with a coordinating solid color. The simple garter stitch lace pattern opens up the fabric and biases naturally for an interesting parallelogram shape.
