My favourite part of this design is how it’s completely seamless. I’m a perfectionist and I love coming up with creative ways to get my patterns and FOs just the way I want them, especially this colour pattern. Knitters are going to find it very addictive!
Denali is an Aztec-influenced two-colour cowl that is completely reversible and utterly enchanting. With gorgeous drape and soothing warmth, this small accessory is endless in its colour choices, ensuring it is the gift that keeps on giving. Knit it up with our Superwash Sport for an ultra-lightweight feel.
Allison’s Tip for Knitting Denali
When working the two-colour Kitchener stitch when joining the live stitches to the cast on edge, be sure to match the tension of the rest of the piece. When in doubt, err on the side of loose, and then steam, steam, steam! This technique works so great you will forget where the join was.
