Quick refresher: I have some patterns that are forever-free patterns and you can find those here. I also have some limited-time free patterns that are usually a paid pattern, but for the first week, or more, they are free to those who subscribe and see them in time to download. If you don’t want to miss out on those, be sure to subscribe now!

Ruffles Throughout

The structured yarn allows you to wear the leg warmers high on your calves or squish them down around your ankles. They would also make great boot toppers having the ribbed section fold over the top.

Materials Used

I used Rowan Kid Classic yarn for this project (affiliate link). This exquisite blend of 70% lambswool, 22% kid mohair, and 8% polyamide creates a yarn that’s not only incredibly soft but also durable and versatile. The lambswool provides warmth, while the kid mohair adds a touch of fuzzy halo and a gentle sheen. The result is a yarn that drapes beautifully, making it perfect for the cascading ruffles of this cowl. They have a huge range of colors to choose from so you can customize the cowl

Hook Used
