Fennville Hat and Cowl Pattern
Mary raises her sheep in Fennville, and the first time I saw them, the ewes were heavy with lambs and ready for shearing.Her pasture is an old pear orchard and I’m told that the sheep run from tree to tree in the fall when they hear the pears dropping. Along with cjkoho Designs, I’ve purchased her entire clip to create the Welcome Home yarn line that the sample is knit in.
Fennville makes use of little bits of color to recreate Mary’s sheep waiting underneath pear blossoms and ready to birth their lambs…any wool lover will appreciate the scene.
The larger than traditional gauge will make this hat or cowl a speedy knit working through the different portions of the chart from grass to sheep to canopy.I suspect everyone in your knitting group is going to want one for themselves, but you’ll be able to say you set the trend by knitting it first.
