Simple Daiquiri
There’s something I love about a giant, deeply textured cowl as the weather turns. It’s so easy and satisfying to knit -and once done, you throw it on with pretty much anything and it instantly makes the outfit. especially when knit in a gorgeous eye-catching color.
I decided to name it Simple Daiquiri since the basic pattern design is straightforward and classic, but it can be played with in a variety of ways - much like the traditional Daiquiri recipe - which combines ONLY rum, lime and simple sugar - but has been modified a thousand times, depending on ingredients on hand and the taste of who’s having the cocktail!
With that in mind, notes are included in the pattern for modifying depth or width, playing with gauge, and playing around a little with the pattern itself. I like mine in one solid color, but I could also envision this in color blocks or stripes as well….
