IDA NECK

Description

Colorwork projects look difficult and take a long time to knit? Not with the Cowl knitting pattern Ida! The Ida Neck easy colourwork knitting pattern is a modern knitting pattern and the perfect colorwork beginner knitting project. The Ida Neck is mostly knitted in the round and requires two other pattern colors in addition to the main color. This easy colorwork knitting pattern is suitable for absolute colourwork beginners, as the entire colorwork part is knitted in the round. The rib pattern at the cuffs and hem gives the cowl knitting pattern the perfect finish. The Ida Neck can be worn with coats and jackets and will keep your neck cozy and warm in fall and winter! It is also a perfect way to make use of any single skeins or scrap yarn you have in your stash.

Begin by making a gauge swatch to check that you have the correct gauge.
