Rowan Handknit Cotton

By Rowan

Handknit Cotton is one of the classic Rowan yarns we have loved for so long. It’s got a nice body to it, and it knits up fast. But really, it’s the colors that make us kind of nuts. It’s our choice for the Picket Fence Afghan and Bodhi Leaf Cloths in MDK Field Guide No. 7: Ease, as well as Log Cabin Cloths featured in MDK Field Guide No. 4: Log Cabin.

Please note: patterns not included. Picket Fence Afghan and Bodhi Leaf Cloth patterns appear in MDK Field Guide No. 7: Ease,  and Log Cabin Cloths are in MDK Field Guide No. 4: Log Cabin. Be sure to add a copy to your cart at checkout!
