Striated (kit or printed pattern or download)

Description

Striated begins with a provisional cast-on, is knitted in rows using a simple, but striking faggot stitch and is edged with a chain selvedge. It is finished by grafting the two ends together, so the finished cowl appears seamless. It would make a great project for someone new to lace knitting.

The pattern for Striated cowl is available to download from the Being Knitterly Ravelry store, or here as a printed pattern or as part of a kit. The printed pattern and kit are sent with a Ravelry digital download code.

Other details

This pattern is available in two versions: the standard one for those who knit right-handed and an alternative one written for those who knit left-handed. If you purchase the printed pattern or kit and would like the pattern for knitting left-handed, please say so in your order notes at check out.

Most of you knit right-handed, that is, your stitches move from the left to right needle as you knit.

Some of you knit left-handed, that is, your stitches move from the right to left needle as you knit.

If you are a left-handed knitter who knits right-handed, that is your stitches move from the left to right needle, you should use the pattern for knitting right-handed.
