Candyfloss Scarf or Cowl Knitting Pattern

Candyfloss Scarf or Cowl Knitting Pattern

$5.00

The Candyfloss Scarf & Cowl can be made with a bulky mohair or a lighter-weight mohair held double. I’ve knit this up in both a mohair and an alpaca-silk blend, and found both options worked very well. With the open, lacy stitch paired with very lightweight wool, this scarf or cowl practically floats around your neck, while still offering coziness and warmth. Check out the pattern for the Candyfloss Hat if you’re looking to make a matching winter set!
