The Pattern:
From Maxim Cyr (@maxtheknitter), Bumpy Cowl is a fun way to cover your neck and chin with a cheery knit. It' s also a great way to highlight a stunning gradient yarn like Spiral Grain from Urth Yarns. A simple pattern always makes for a smooth knit, but in case you need it, find a video tutorial for the i-cord stripes here.
The Yarns:
You will find 2-100g hanks of Sueño by Hikoo in your Bumpy Cowl Kit for the main color of this cowl and 1-50g hank of Spiral Grain from Urth Yarns.
Sueño by Hikoo is a Peruvian yarn that is a blend of soft superwash merino and bamboo, and is made with strength and wearability in mind. The perfect amount of spring makes knitting with it a pleasure, and allows for a variety of suitable gauges. Sueño is 80% superwash merino wool and 20% viscose from bamboo and can be machine washed cold and dried flat.
Urth Spiral Grain consists of three colorful plys twisted together to mirror the unusual spiral grain growth patterns found in trees. Gradual color changes with a visual depth in texture offer an engaging and delightful knitting experience. Spiral Grain is 100% extra fine superwash merino wool and can also be machine washed cold and dried flat.
