Supplies Needed

Supplies:

*   Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in two colors. Needles: US 8 (5.0mm) circular needles. Stitch markers. Tapestry needle.

Gauge

The gauge for this pattern is 18 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch.

Sizing

The cowl is designed to fit a 21-23 inch neck circumference. The length the cowl is adjustable to fit any desired length.

To make this project, you will need:

*   A yarn that has some elasticity and drape, like wool or alpaca. I used Patons Classic Wool Merino in the colorway "Twilight". This yarn has great stitch definition and comes in lots of beautiful colors! You can find it at your local craft store or online Here

Pattern

Cast on the required number of stitches for your size and join in the round, being careful not to twist your stitches. Place a marker at the beginning of the round. Work in stockinette stitch until the cowl measures the desired length, ending with a WS row (this will mean that you'll be working flat). Bind off all stitches loosely on RS rows, or use an elastic bind-off if you prefer (see below).

Finishing

*   Weave in any remaining ends and block your cowl to the desired measurements.
*   Sew on buttons or other embellishments, if desired.
