Some Fun Scarves, Shawls and Cowls

, by . Leave a Comment

I’m back with another lightning round of patterns from yarn companies that would make perfect projects for fall. This time it’s a bunch of accessories that go around the neck. Enjoy!

The Zig Zag Scarf from Lion Bran Yarn is an easy but fun little project where you’re increasing and decreasing regularly to make the undulating shape. Worked in a tweed yarn, it’s a lot of fun, but it would surely be great in a solid as well.

Berroco calls the triangular Fleming a scarf, but it could also be labeled a shawlette. Either way, it has a really interesting cable and lace motif and is worked in cozy alpaca and wool yarn. Berroco’s Bal Bullier is another genre-spanning warmer, this time a wide geometric scarf worked in garter stitch with a bit of intarsia at the color changes.

Meg Meyer’s Avalanche Scarf for Classic Elite Yarns is a cozy take on a drop-stitch scarf, spacing drops between large, wide swaths of garter stitch. shawl knitting patterns

Shawls

In the “definitely a shawl” category are a couple of great season-spanning projects. Berroco’s Malemute uses three different kinds of yarn for an ethereal shawl that’s also still plenty warm.

And Josephina is a lovely three-color shawl with eyelets, stripes and a lace edging, designed by Amanda Rios in a merino and silk yarn for a little bit of shine all year long. cowl knitting patterns

Cowls

A cowl is like an easier to deal with version of a scarf, and I find myself knitting a lot more cowls than scarves lately. If you feel the same way, check out the Big Hug Cowl from Rock and Purl, which is worked in the round with a pretty easy eyelet pattern and contrasting edging.

Or try the Kendal Cowl from Tahki Stacy Charles, another quick and easy project that uses drop stitches for big effect.

Knitting Pattern – Adorable Teddy Bear Cardigan For Baby

As a knitter, I am always on the lookout for new and interesting patterns to add to my collection. Recently, I came across Sirdar’s TEDDY BEAR CARDIGANS IN SNUGGLY SNOWFLAKE CHUNKY, design number 5404. This pattern caught my attention because of its adorable teddy bear motif pockets, and the fact that it comes in two different styles – a V-neck and shawl collar version.

The fluffy Snuggly Snowflake Chunky yarn that is used in this pattern adds an extra touch of warmth and coziness.

I have to admit, I haven’t had the chance to knit this pattern yet, but it’s definitely on my list of patterns to complete this year. The fact that it is classified as an easy level makes it accessible for knitters of all skill levels and I’m excited to give it a try. The pattern includes detailed instructions and charts, making it easy for knitters to follow along and create a beautiful and functional piece.

I love the idea of the teddy bear pockets and I can imagine how adorable it would look on a baby. The fact that the pattern comes in two different styles gives me the flexibility to choose the one that best suits my needs or preferences.

I am excited to add this pattern to my list of projects to complete this year. I believe that this pattern is a great choice for knitters looking for a cute and cozy project that is easy to make. I can’t wait to start knitting and see the final product.
