We are pleased to offer a printed copy of Sanna & Co.'s Rollo Double Cowl pattern.

This cowl features a traditional Scandinavian style colourwork pattern and includes instructions for Fingering/4ply and DK/8ply yarn weights.

It is funnel shaped for a better fit, and is a reversible design with colourwork on one side and stripes on the other.

The name Rollo is a nickname for Rovaniemi, which was my home town in Finnish Lapland for ten years.

The design was inspired by the colourwork pattern in Rovaniemi mittens.

The colourwork pattern covers the outer layer of the cowl and includes increases that create the funnel shape.

The striped lining has regular increase rounds to match the funnel shaping of the outer fabric.

As the final step, the tube is folded into itself and joined by grafting stitches form Cast-on and Bind-off edges together.
