This beautifully detailed cowl features an array of patterns and textures that emulate fish scales, tails, and waves. Named ‘Anadrom’ after fish that leave the sea and migrate up rivers, this cowl is full of movement and cleverly placed details. The motif of a fish is created with twisted stitches, cables, and a passed over stitch fish scale pattern. Textured stockinette panels of increases and decreases create a wave pattern in the background of the fish motif. Anadrom Cowl is knit in Cumbria, a worsted-weight yarn blend of Masham wool, Merino and mohair. The resulting fabric is soft yet sturdy, with an incredible stitch definition that makes this cowl’s all-over texture vividly stand out. Yarn: The Fibre Co.
