linen stitch



coat - burda (08/2012, #101)

few more pics of my new coat
and brand new cowl 
..
cowl is knitted in linen stitch
using 10mm circular needles
and 3.5 balls of bulky yarn 
(one ball is 50g/60m)
..
this might be my favorite stitch
i'm obsessed with it so much
that i might try knitting a sweater in it..
and i totally need this cowl
in bubblegum pink.. and mint
..

  1. gorgeous color … I have to look into the linen stitch - such a beautiful texture and yes you do need one in bubble gum pink and one in mint!
    ps. you will wake up one day and find your coat is missing ;)

    1. it is such a rich color, i really love it.. and what i love about linen stitch, besides beautiful texture, is that back side looks like moss stitch, so both sides are really pretty, which makes it great stitch for cowls and scarfs (but i still think it would look fabulous as a sweater too)

  2. fabric and shape is a perfect combination

  3. Mint would be a dream.

    I love cowls, they are my favourite! Superb colour!
