About the design

Knit with your own naturally dyed yarn – Rita Merrigan shows you how!

It's time to grab the knitting needles and reach for the good stuff – 100% wool yarn.
This project’s all about rolling up your sleeves and getting stuck into the whole process, showing you how to dye a skein with natural botanical extracts before knitting it into a simple cowl. Start a slow fashion revolution from your kitchen counter.

This hand-dyed knitted cowl pattern is designed by Rita Merrigan and was first published in Mollie Makes magazine issue 97.
