The Buttons Cowl is officially ready for prime time! My mom did a wonderful job of test knitting for me and knit this gorgeous version in Chestnut with natural wooden buttons as a lovely contrast to my original bright Peacock and pearly buttons version.
The cowl uses just one skein of TFA Green Label Aran Weight yarn and can easily be knit in just two short nights of casual knitting. A quick and satisfying project indeed! The fit is more like a face snuggling neck-warmer rather than a slouchy cowl, it's really designed to keep you toasty warm during the coldest of winter months.

Come back tomorrow for a buttons cowl inspired giveaway!



I just downloaded your cowl pattern and want to say thanks so much. It is a great design and a snugger cowl will be just ideal for the cold winter days.
ReplyDeleteI, too, downloaded it, but now I am having a serious attack of hat lust!!!
ReplyDeleteIs there a place to find a pattern for that - it's *adorable*!
Hi Rayna, the hat I'm wearing in the photo is my Shedir hat, pattern from Knitty.com. Awesome, I love it too!
ReplyDeleteHi Tanis,
ReplyDeletehow generous of you to give us the cowl pattern for free.
Thank you so much.

Love the pattern (and colors!!) Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThere's a gorgeous Whippet at the barn where Emma rides - his name is Chase and he'd make an awesome boyfriend for Stella. Great cowl!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Thank you, Tanis - although you are going to be the death of me ;-). Once I finish the wimple I am knitting from Purple label, I am casting on a Grammy's hat in Deep Sea and of course the lovely stole...I am going to have to stop reading you or I am never going to stop adding things to my queue! :-D. Now I want to knit both the Shedir and a button cowl too!
ReplyDeleteHi Tanis, I just received my Year In Color selection and I can't wait to wind the skein and get started! I love the cowl and the hat too. Most of all I had to say how excited I get when you post pics of Stella! I had a greyhound for 10 years and nothing gets me more than that sweet hound face. Ok, maybe your yarn affects me the same way :)
ReplyDeleteLovely, thanks for sharing the pattern!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely cowl pattern! Thanks Tanis.
ReplyDeletethank you for such a beautiful pattern and at no cost, too! what a lovely gift... who told you my birthday was this past Saturday?! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi Tanis - love your site, especially the photo of your dog wearing the "Buttons Cowl Pattern".
ReplyDeletePenny
I love your dog. He/she is so elegant and sweet. You must be so proud.
ReplyDeleteHi Tanis,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the cowl pattern. I live in Ottawa and it going to get much colder than the current -15C in the next few weeks. Your cowl pattern is close fitting and just perfect.
