We are pleased to offer kits for Sanna & Co.'s Rollo Double Cowl.
Kits will be dyed-to-order and will ship within approximately 14 days.  

Pattern Details:

The Rollo Double Cowl features a traditional Scandinavian style colourwork pattern and includes instructions for 4ply and 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.

Sizing and fit:

Available in two sizes:

  • Size 1 (Fingering weight): Top circumference 54cm, bottom circumference 62cm, height 18cm.
  • Size 2 (DK weight): Top circumference 43cm, bottom circumference 63cm, height 20cm.

Design notes:

  • This cowl is knit in the round and in one piece.
  • 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.

      Working with Hand Dyed Yarns

      Hand-dyed in small batches in Tasmania.

      The beauty and nature of hand dyed yarn is that every skein is unique and individual. Even within the same dye batch variations between skeins can occur.

      We therefore recommend alternating skeins within your projects to ensure an optimal finish and colour blending.

      Please also ensure you buy enough yarn for your project at the time of purchase, as colours can vary between dye batches.

      Care Instructions

      Our hand dyed yarns have been washed to remove excess dye, however some residual dye may remain, particularly in dark and saturated colourways. 

      It is recommended to gently hand wash your hand dyed projects in cold water.

      Wool wash or a mild detergent may be used.

      We recommend blocking and drying garments flat and not tumble drying.
