Zinnia Cowl Knit or Crochet Kit
Zinnia Cowl Knit or Crochet Kit
How did we make both knitters and crocheters happy with our Zinnia Cowl Kit? We included instructions for both skills in the kit! It all started when our crocheting friends asked for more crochet kits, so we created our Zinnia Cowl Crochet Kit! Then our knitting friends saw this kit and wanted a knit version, so we created our Zinnia Cowl Knitting Kit . Well, in an attempt to keep life simple we combined the two. One kit, your choice, both the knit and crochet patterns are included (there is enough yarn in the kit to make either version (but not both). With a combined alpaca yarn in the solid color and a wool/alpaca/nylon in the handpainted color, this cowl is both soft, warm and it hold its shape! The last photo of the Zinnia in cornucopia shows the knit version. All other photos show the crochet version. The knit version is just a tad lacier. Order a kit and make one for yourself today!
PS. This kit also makes an excellent gift for anyone in your knitting or crochet group!
