Precious Metal by Emma Vining

Inspired by the ripple patterns formed by the wind on drifting snow, this cowl blends a light and airy stitch pattern with a chunky, shimmering yarn. The dropped stitch rib pattern is reversible and uses short-row shaping to form the ripples and drifts. The cowl can be worn in a big loop or wrapped around your neck twice for a cosy feel.

YARN

Monarch Scarf features an unusual three-part yarn: a little glitz, a bit of ribbon, and wool, each in different shades. Monarch, from the Rozetti Yarns collection at Universal Yarn, is a self-ruffling yarn with a ladder construction along one edge. This scarf is easy to knit and can be completed in mere hours. Monarch is available in four shades, and one 33-yard ball is enough to create this scarf.
