Abinante presenty Cove Cowl
photography by colinfitzgeraldphotography.com Yarn Shown is Three Irish Girls Glenhaven Cashmerino Worsted (8o% merino, 10% cashmere, 10% nylon; 195 yards/178 meters per 95 grams), shown in Cara. 1RASHING WAVES,SANDY BEACHES,AND IRISH FOLKORE REgarding both of those elements inspired this complex cabled cowl. From kelpies to the merrow, Irish oceanic folklore is utterly terrifying, not unlike these cables at first glance. It seems only fitting that the yarn for this ocean folklore inspired cowl be from an Irish lass.

I recommend cabling without a cable needle to make the pattern work up more quickly. Without it, you could be working dozens of cables crosses per round. 1 would not recommend using anything heavier than a worsted weight because it will cause the stitches to tug on each other in an unpleasing manner.
