Shadow Color Cowl is our Tunisian crochet pattern for the 2025 Chicago Yarn Crawl! It will be available for free download right here through the end of the day on Sunday, August 3rd. The pattern will be emailed to you in a separate email right after your order confirmation email.

Tunisian Crochet lends itself well to shadow or illusion colorwork! Going back and forth between TSS and RSS plays with the texture of the fabric in a way that's fun from every angle, easily achieved with a simple two-row sequence. And due to the nature of the stitches, the effect is almost perfectly reversible from right side to wrong side.

For our sample, we used the CCs in the same order twice, and the color-shifting MC makes each section pop in a unique way. After completing the color sequence of the first Spiral Grain skein, we started it over from the beginning to give all the colors a chance to shine. The order you choose is completely open to your creativity!

Our sample uses the kit colorway Sugar Pine Jewels, and we can't wait to see how someone using the same bundle comes up with a new variation! If this bundle isn't for you, we've got other options: Juniper Pop, Steel Magnolia, and Crabapple Blast. You can shop them all right here!
