Amanita

Amanita

$5.00

Inspired by the fantastical amanita mushroom, this cowl comes in two versions: the Simple Amanita Cowl or the Fair Isle Amanita Cowl. Both are seamless cowls worked in the round. The fair isle version begins with a provisional cast on so that the cowl becomes reversible, which hides the stranded colourwork inside. Don't want to do the extra work? Knit the Simple Amanita with a ribbed hem and simpler stranded colourwork pattern.
