Design by Lea Katharina
What kind of moustache do you like? The pencil moustache? The walrus moustache? The handlebar moustache? The dali moustache? Or is the milk moustache or even butterbeer moustache more your kind of Mo? For all the Mo lovers and Mo lovers friends I designed this Moustache Cowl to keep you all warm and chic during the chilly months that are around the corner. The double knitting fakes care of the wrong side syndrome. All the strands are inside and the two layers create a wonderful soff and warm fabric. Show off your favorite side or the color that fits your mood best. One is for sure: You can't go wrong with either side. Also this patfern is a contribution to MOVEMBER. During the 30 days of November the Mo Bros are growing a moustache to bring awareness fo men's health issues. The Mo Sistas help the Mo Bros to achieve this goal. Gals can't grow a moustache though but let's knit a Moustache Cowl during the 30 days of November. Take your kniting everywhere you go and talk about men's health, help to make an impact on the face of men's health: www.movember.com. But please, there is no need to wipe off your butterbeer moustache with your sleeve or cowl! pattern nstes The cowlis worked from the bottom up by working the chart twice per round.
