Description

The Sloth Cowl was designed for the Simply Knitting Magazine issue 211 which went on sale on the 29th April 2021.

Inspired by my daughter's love of sloths, I designed a sloth cowl. She loves a cowl because they are cosy and warm and get in the way less than a scarf. The hugging and hanging nature of sloths made them the ideal animal for a neck warmer.

He's knitted in Stylecraft Special DK and the main part of the cowl is knitted in Mushroom. It's such a lovely shade.

To give a fur like texture the cowl is knitted in star stitch. It's also quite a dense stich so that adds to the insulating qualities.

The face and tail are knitted separately and sewn on afterwards.

The sloth cowl is super cute and a fun knit to make. Perfect for people who love sloth and super for keeping your neck warm.
