Envelop by Samantha Guerin Designs | Envelop is an infinity cowl, knit in a tube and seamed with a twist. This double thickness fabric is so luxurious and is sure to keep the cold away. Slipped stitches in fluffy yarn create plump texture and are intuitive to work, making this a great travel knit or “knitflix” project. If you haven’t seamed a project using kitchener stitch in the round before, I’ve got you! I created a video tutorial that walks you through the entire process, from set up to seaming the final two stitches.
