Sussex Lace Cowl – 232
Designed by Maureen Clark
The Sussex Cowl was designed as the Spinnery’s contribution to the 2017 I-91 Shop Hop pattern collection.
This lacey infinity cowl was inspired by the timeless fashions seen on period dramas shown on the BBC (Maureen’s favorite television programs). This delicate accessory is refined enough for an afternoon tea and yet perfectly practical for a morning in the garden. It’s generous circumference means that it can be wrapped into the perfect size for any occasion.
The Sussex Lace infinity cowl is worked side to side with a repeating lace pattern that is charted and written out, so you can follow along as you prefer. It can be created with a single skein of our fingering weight yarns. Shown above in Dungarees, Sock Art Lana.

The cowl’s undulating stripes of contrasting color can be bold and fun or soft and subtle. Either option can be crafted in just a few hours ensuring that you’ll have a new accessory by the time you reach your destination!
