This is going to be a cowl that can also be worn over the head. I still don’t know what to call it - it is a cowl and hood combined.
It is knit in a Estonian Lace stitch that I am converting from a flat to a circular stitch, talk about a challenge. The stitch is Nupp Lace 1. BTW if anyone is interested in using this stitch pattern, it should read a multiple of 20 plus 21; I’ve written the person on this site more than once about this but they never made the correction.
My friend had picked out the yarn for Sideways Socks; realized I needed a 100 yard skein to be able to make socks that matched, 3 skeins from the same dye lot did not have the same color runs :??
It is a sock yarn with elastic so I hope this works out okay for the lace when I block it.
:lol: When I first learned that I taught my husband how to pronounce it. Nupps are different from bobbles, they are elongated, done in this yarn they remind me of plump little raisins.
That’s funny, I downloaded that pattern just three days ago Besides the nupps Echo Flower Shawl has a pretty flower stitch.
I don’t know that my nupps will show up very much in this cowl, but I’m okay with that, I really like making them. Using lace needles makes it easier, and maintaining a very loose tension.
Do you have an Echo Flower Shawl planned for the near term?
