This knit stitch pattern is inspired by the conical form of the majestic Taranaki Maunga (Mt Taranaki). Starting as a hand-knit slip stitch sample it is translated into a digitally knit textile.

This 100% Merino wool neckerchief is the ideal small scarf for colder days inside and out and easily tucked into a bag to pull out when needed.

1250mm L x 230mm W

Knit Shepherd's designs take inspiration from the natural world of Aotearoa. The patterns are inspired by locations throughout the motu and the colours names reference our native fauna. All Knit Shepherd designs are produced locally, employing a low-waste process.
