The Sidestep Cowl Kit by Freia Fine Handpaints is a beautiful introduction to two-color brioche, showcasing the stunning interplay of Freia’s hand-dyed gradients. Designed by Tina Whitmore, this cozy cowl is knit using two complementary minikins of US Merino yarn in a stepped columnar pattern that adds visual interest and depth. The natural squish and bounce of brioche give this project exceptional softness and texture, resulting in a cowl that feels as good as it looks.
Each kit includes the yarn and printed pattern to create the Sidestep Cowl. Knit in alternating gradient colorways, the finished piece offers a reversible design with rich, shifting color transitions. While not a difficult pattern, some basic experience with brioche is recommended. Sidestep Cowl Kit by Freia Fine Handpaints is a joyful project for adventurous beginners and seasoned knitters alike. Needles are not included.
Kit Includes: four individual balls of custom spun, single ply 100% US mulesing-free Merino wool, and a printed pattern (Sidestep Cowl by Tina Whitmore)
