Crocheted Moebius Cowl Using Habu Root Sizing Silk
The Design
The Crochet Moebius Loop is one of our patterns that we reach for time and again. Just the right kind of mindless project for summer—rhythmic, soothing, and no need to pay close attention.
So it's no wonder that we thought of this pattern when the shimmering balls of Habu Root Sizing Silk arrived. The colorful silk is crisp and easy to manage. The stitches stay open while you're working, and then the whole thing collapses into a glistening, glorious, soft silky loop when you wash it. As a bonus, we were able to reduce the initial number of chains for this yarn, so it goes even more quickly than the original Kidsilk version (the free adaptation for Habu Root Sizing Silk gives details).
For extra portability, add the twist and do the seaming before hitting the road. Then just work the simple, pleasing stitch in the round until you run out of yarn. Ahhhh.
