Luminate Cowl & Infinity Scarf

The Luminate Cowl and Infinity Scarf pattern combines different fibers and textures and the contrast they can produce. Two different yarns (a solid, plied yarn paired with a brushed, fuzzy alpaca yarn) provide plenty of contrast, and adding a textured stitch pattern like Seed Stitch adds even more interest in how the two yarns interact with each other.

The cowl is knit in the round from the bottom edge to the top and uses stranded knitting to create the design (both yarns are worked in the same row, with the unused yarn ‘stranded’ across the back while the other yarn is being used.

Stitch pattern includes written and charted instructions.
