Pattern is for a 3 bobble row necklace or neck-piece or a 10 bobble row cowl but can be extended to a larger cowl or scarf and if made lareger and twisted before sewing up it will be a moebius cowl.

The cowl in the pattern used just 2 skeins but needed a bit extra to work the final dc ( USA sc) row and for sewing up only. So there is most of the third skein left-over.

Unless you sew it up with a matching but thinner yarn and forego the final dc row in which case 2 skeins will suffice.

Andes is Alpaca and wool and is fabulously soft, any substitution will change the feel of the cowl. It comes in a nice wide range of colours both neutrals and brights.

Readily available online from Wool warehouse and very cheap too or good value for money really. A cowl for less than £15?!!! And no acrylic, all natural.
