Hi lovely people! 💗
There is something magical about combining structure and whimsy in a knitting project, and the Boxes of Love Cowl does just that! The rhythmic pattern of tidy boxes, each cradling a tiny heart, is a celebration of how love often hides in the small, structured moments of our lives. They are the little things we all do everyday for our loved ones as the foundation of our love for them.
The Boxes of Love Cowl is a stranded colourwork project that balances simplicity and sophistication. The repeating grid of boxes creates a modern aesthetic, while the hidden hearts nestled inside add a playful and comforting twist. Worked in the round, this cowl is perfect for beginner knitters looking to practice colourwork tension!
Key Features:
- Stranded Colourwork – A two-colour pattern that’s repetitive enough to memorize quickly, making it meditative and satisfying
- Versatile Styling – Designed to fit comfortably around the neck, it pairs equally well with casual sweaters or dressy coats
- Stash Busting – Choose boldly contrasting colours for a striking look, soft hues for subtle elegance, or a wild skein paired with a neutral to show off a stunning hand dyed beauty!
Whether you’re knitting this for yourself or a loved one, this cowl is a wearable reminder of warmth, comfort, and connection >>
