Welted Cowl & Infinity Loop Using Blue Sky Fibers Baby Alpaca

Welted Cowl & Infinity Loop Using Blue Sky Fibers Baby Alpaca

Welted Cowl & Infinity Loop Using Blue Sky Fibers Baby Alpaca

Welted Cowl & Infinity Loop Using Blue Sky Fibers Baby Alpaca

“Purl welts for a sculptural effect.”

We noticed that some knitters were knitting the cowl from our Churchmouse Classics Easy Folded Poncho separately and that gave us an idea. Why not double the cowl's circumference for an infinity loop that you can wear long and elegant, or twist double for twice the cozy? We added purl welts for a sculptural effect. And, while we were at it, we two-toned it for clever reversibility!

Shown in Blue Sky Fibers Baby Alpaca

The softness is the first thing you'll notice when you pick up a skein of Blue Sky Fibers Baby Alpaca. Then the color sneaks up on you. Every shade (except black) has subtle complexity that's achieved either by over-dying heathered fleece or by combing together multiple dyed colors. Next-to-the-skin softness makes it perfect for accessories.

Yarn Source

Jimmy Beans Wool

Cowl: Approx. 24"/61cm around x 11"/28cm deep, with welts flattened.
Infinity Loop: Approx. 48"/122cm around by 11"/28cm deep, with welts flattened.

Cowl: Approx. 220 yds/200m of dk- or sport-weight alpaca or alpaca-blend yarn. Shown lower row: 2 skeins Rowan Felted Tweed (191 yds/175m each), Color 181.
Infinity Loop: Approx. 440 yds/400m of dk- or sport-weight alpaca or alpaca-blend yarn; two color version requires approx. 280 yds/265m of one color and 150 yds/146m of the other. Shown upper row: 5 skeins Blue Sky Alpacas Melange (110 yds/100m each), 3 skeins Color 816 and 2 skeins Color 522.

US 6 (4mm) 16–24"/40–60cm circular, or size to obtain gauge.
One US 8 (5mm) needle, or two sizes larger than gauge needle, for bind-off.

Approx. 20 sts = 4"/10cm in stockinette stitch in the round, blocked.

You might notice a difference in our two sample pieces. We wet blocked both pieces when we were done, but chose to press the welts on the golden Felted Tweed piece to flatten them further. It's knitter's choice—you decide if you're after more drape and fluidity, or want something more cushy!
