SHORELINE


Shoreline is fabulous for stash busting! As relaxing to knit as it is cozy to wear, this infinity cowl makes a lovely gift – whether to yourself or for a friend. Colorful stripes are broken up by sections of easy-to-memorize openwork, creating the perfect color playground and stash-busting opportunity. The cowl is knit in the round for a double-thick fabric that’s attractive on both sides, then grafted to make a loop.

TIP: Shoreline can be made using the leftover yarns from the Hudson Shawl from the book Within: Knitting Patterns to Warm the Soul by Jane Richmond & Shannon Cook.
