April 2023 starts our Pressed Flowers Make-a-Long, which focuses on the series of patterns written by Amy Christoffers centered around her Pressed Flowers motif. It's a great motif because it uses garter and stockinette mosaic, as well as flat knitting or knitting in the round, depending on the pattern. She has written patterns for a shawl, cardigan, hat and cowl (listed below). We also have a few kits (yarn only) for the hat and small cowl, as well as the shawl and large cowl. Cardigan amounts will vary by size.
These videos are meant to assist with the pattern elements rather than replace the written pattern. This fourth video is on the method I used to sew my cowl together, the mattress stitch.
