The idea behind this lovely little cowl is to make the most out of a treasured yarn, so precious that you may only have one small skein. And what Icelandic yarn is more precious than pure cashmere? An endangered species today, the goat was introduced to Iceland by the first settlers in the 9th century or even earlier. It developed cashmere in the harsh Icelandic climate, one of the finest in the world.
The Sírus cowl is a cloud of softness and warmth around your neck, so light and wispy you barely notice it.
It is knitted in the round with a true lace motif (lace is knitted in every round), but easy to follow and very intuitive. The beautiful pattern enhances the yarn and uses very little of it for a most striking result.
