RosyPosy Designs' Cocoon Me includes two sets
of instructions: one for a cowl/eternity scarf and one for a shawlette.
Cocoon Me is a set of wonderfully textured
accessories using a cocoon stitch that looks interesting on both sides and is
especially snuggly worked in a single-ply merino yarn. You might not undergo a
metamorphosis when you wear these pieces, but you will feel cozy. The eternity
scarf or cowl is worked in the round inside-out, while the crescent shawlette is
worked top-down.
Samples are shown in worsted weight yarn, but any weight yarn
may be used. If changing yarn, adjust yardage accordingly. The size of each
piece is easily changed by working more or less repeats of the cocoon pattern.
Skill level: Intermediate. Both written and charted
instructions are provided. Special stitches: p5tog, k1-p1-k1 in same stitch,
k-yo-k in same stitch (shawlette only).
