Cloud Illusions Cowl Kit

Cloud Illusions by Elizabeth Smith Knits - Cloud illusions is a simple little double-stranded cowl knit in the round and worked with 2 different colors of sport-weight yarn at the same time to create a neat marled affect. It also features an easy chevron eyelet stitch panel. This is a great project especially if you are brand new to working with 2 strands of yarn held together (i.e, double-stranding)!s

The perfect weight and drape for springtime. But it’s also a great stash-busting project - have fun playing around with different color combos!

Gauge: 19 sts & 26 rnds = 4”/10 cm in St st in the rnd, with 2 strands of yarn held together. (Exact gauge is not critical but it will affect your finished measurement and yarn usage).
