textured knit cowl in bulky yarn

Knit the Aria Cowl

A few years back, Casey, from Premknits, dyed up a bulky weight yarn called “Fairy Wings” and all I could think about was my daughter. I decided to make a cowl for her and I wanted a textured stitch that wouldn't get too lost with busy yarn. This year I added in a matching hat pattern. You'll love this stitch. It's a four row repeat that only uses knit and purl stitches that you'll memorize right away. It's a great project for beginners through experienced knitters who just want a quick and mindless pattern. It's also a perfect pattern for on-the-go knitting or night time TV binging.

This year I decided to go on the hunt for a yarn that closely resembles hand dyed yarn. Not only is it budget friendly, but it's much easier to get your hands on as well. Lion Brand Mandala Impressions yarn is a perfect fit for the Aria Hat and Cowl and it comes in a bunch of fun colors. 

I have designed the Aria Hat and Cowl in three sizes (previously I had designed this as only a cowl pattern in two sizes). The hat sizes range from 19-22 inch (48 - 56 cm), which makes it perfect for toddler through adult sizes. The cowl also fits toddler through adult sizes, with the larger adult size being a good fit for all size adults. 

Meeting gauge for this project is pretty important. If your yarn is too thin or too thick, your hat or cowl is going to be either way too small or will lack drape and be too big.
