Frondly Yours Test Knitting Specs

Frondly Yours is a colorwork cowl featuring a fern motif with fiddleheads and fronds, with a dip stitch column down the front. It is worked bottom-up in the round.

As the colorwork motif is fairly complex, this project is recommended for knitters who are very comfortable with stranded colorwork and managing long floats.

TEST DATES:

June 16 - July 28, 2025

This test knit will be hosted on Slack.

Testers will be selected from the KC Knitting Co private testing pool, which means you are pre-approved and do not need to submit a formal application. If you indicate interest in testing, then you’re in!

You are NOT required to use Wool & Palette yarn to test. If you choose to, a 10% discount code will be provided to selected testers.

The test is slated to begin on Monday, June 16th, 2025 when a formatted, fully tech-edited pattern will be sent to testers who have completed a gauge swatch.
