Details
Another great stashbuster!
You will cutaway at your stash knitting these fun and simple cowls.
With two sizes to choose from Itβs even easier to use up small amounts as well.
Cutaway is a fun cowl with an eye catching split seam at the neck and shoulder.
Simple to knit the whole way through and with an accent of Mosaic stitches at the base to add some zip to the design.
Mosaic is easy to do because you only work with one colour per row.
Even if you have never tried Mosaic you will find this incredibly easy.
You will want to knit more than one of these and can definitely give them as a great gift to the knitworthy people in your life.
