Scheepjes Peru is a Super Chunky weight yarn so your cowl will grow quickly and be ready to wear in no time! As a blend of 20% Alpaca and 80% Acrylic, it is wonderfully light and soft against the skin and washable up to 30°C. Kits are available in a choice of two beautiful natural shades of Peru that will make your stitches easier to see.

Learning to knit in the round has all sorts of benefits. For example, there are fewer seams to sew up and circular needles are easier to transport for crafting on the go. As circulars promote a relaxed position and distribute the weight of your work evenly, they are also a more ergonomic choice. In addition to the kit, to make the cowl, you will need an 80cm circular needle with 12mm tips and a stitch marker.
