Spelae is born from a gorgeous and lightning collaboration with Maison Corlène. Our main goal was to create a minimalistic, beginner-friendly pattern that would still be engaging for the knitters, thanks to its small but original detail.
This cowl is knitted in the round, seamlessly, in 1/5 ribbing. You can easily alter its height and length. As an example, I wanted my version to be long enough to wrap myself twice in it. And as the piece had to stay simple, I thought of adding a nice but twisted version of it, with a textured stitch pattern, for those of you who might enjoy something different. A piece both classic and unusual.

Yarn: My sample was knitted out of 2 skeins of aran weight yarn, in the Bakewell base (166m/100g), in the Alexandre colorway, from Maison Corlène. This base content is 100% superwash (SW) Bluefaced Leicester (BFL) . You can also use their Fisherman base, which is not superwash, nylon-free, BFL/Gotland blend.
You can use an aran weight yarn as long as you get gauge with it. Meterage is as follows : 332m
