CONSTRUCTION NOTES

This tubular cowl is a fun and relaxing knit.
Worked in the round, with some mindless cables and circles using an easy technique to add some colour to it. (Roosimine )
Two versions are available in this pattern, so you can knit your own.
You can knit the INFINITY SCARF, which looks gorgeous worn long or looped once around your neck or knit the COWL version and both will keep you warm.
You can also add circles in different colours .This is a great opportunity to use up any little bits of leftover yarn in your own stash.
So have fun making your own version.
