After being offline for a number of months whilst the knitonthenet site was being rebuilt, I’m pleased to announce that my pattern Venta is back online again.

Venta is a versatile neck warmer which was inspired by a pub discussion about the perfect scarf / neck warmer which could keep your face, neck and décolletage warm in one garment.
It uses the Roman Rib stitch pattern to create stretch and texture. Knitted flat, it fastens with 23 buttons which can be done up all the way for protection against icy winds or alternatively some buttons can be left open to create a collar, as seen in the picture. It can be worn with or without a coat, in place of a scarf and is a unisex pattern. Although fitting much like a cowl around the neck, the ribbing pattern allows it to stay in place.
It is on sale as a pdf pattern for £4.00 and you can find the pattern page for Venta by clicking here.
