🌱 Celebrate growth, strength, and peace with every stitch…
The Koru Cowl is a stunning stranded colorwork project inspired by Te Ao Māori, the Māori worldview that honors the deep connections between all living and non-living things. The unfurling motif comes from the koru, the spiral of a silver fern frond, symbolizing new life, growth, strength, and tranquility.
This cowl is a beautiful way to build your colorwork confidence. The nearly-symmetric motif provides a meditative rhythm, while long stretches of resting color give your hands and mind space to breathe. You’ll practice stranded knitting, master locking floats, and deepen your appreciation for how simple stitches can carry so much meaning.
Originally worked in soft, rustic Shetland wool from Harrisville Designs in fingering weight, the Koru Cowl is a joy to knit — warm and light, with crisp stitch definition that makes the motif shine.
🌿 Wrap yourself in a story of renewal and connection.
Cast on the Koru Cowl and let each round remind you of the beauty of growth and the peace of nature’s patterns.
