The Yetis’ Cowl (by Les Garçons)

Description

This pattern is available in English and in French as a digital download.

The Yetis’ Cowl is the pattern that was included in this year’s Holiday Mystery Box by Les Garçons. It features a colourwork chevron motif, a twisted drawstring (with instructions, as well as an i-cord option) and the essential fluffy suri lining for maximum warmth and comfort. The pattern was designed to use 8 mini-skeins of different colours, but can also be made using fewer – or even just one – contrasting colours. ⁠
