If you love watching delphiniums bloom in the garden during the summer, carry that image over to the cooler weather with this striking cowl. Panels of lace are interchanged with delphiniums in a combination of tiny bobbles and twisted stitches. This design can be worn as a long infinity loop or wrapped twice around the neck for a cosy cowl. Knit on straight needles, stitches are grafted together at top and bottom for a seamless finish. The edging is worked in as you go, with a pretty scalloped effect.
