The Lengthy Lace Scarf has a new sister! A sister pattern, that is. The Bulky Lace Cowl is closely related because it uses the same lace stitch, is worked in a bulky yarn on large needles, and is a quick and easy knit.

This cowl is designed for two skeins of Malabrigo Mecha, a single ply bulky merino yarn. The colour shown here is Dewberry. Like the Lengthy Lace Scarf, any aran to bulky weight yarn may be used. The needle size is US 11 (8.0 mm).

This cowl is worked in the round and it’s important to bind off loosely so that the bound off edge matches the cast on edge. Use a favourite loose bind off technique if you wish or just bind off in an exaggerated loose manner, as I do. I explain in the pattern notes.

Thanks again to my hard working test knitters! Take a look at their beautiful cowls here.

Happy knitting!
Michelle
