GAUGE: In pattern stitch, (DK) 6sts=1”; (Super Bulky) 10 sts=4.25” before blocking

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS: (DK) Before blocking: 8” tall, 26” around; After blocking: 7.5” tall, 31.5” around. (Super Bulky) Before blocking: 9.5” tall, 25.5” around; After blocking: 9” tall, 32” around.

NOTES: I knit both cowls until I had just enough left to bind off, so you might get a taller cowl out of your skeins of yarn. This was a stash-buster project, so I just kept knitting.
If you’d like your cowl to be longer around, cast on more stitches by multiples of 4—I imagine 2 skeins of Tosh Merino DK and double the cast-on stitches will give you a cowl that loops around twice!
