The Soundtrack Cowl is a fun and colorful project and a great introduction to slip stitch colorwork. It uses just 1 skein of each of the 2 colors of worsted-weight yarn (although there is also the Summer Soundtrack Cowl if you would prefer sport/dk-weight). Like a catchy background melody, Soundtrack’s stitch pattern is a bit addictive - you’ll have a hard time putting it down!

There’s also a Soundtrack tee if you’re interested in using this stitch pattern for a garment!
