This cowl features a simple lacy stitch with moss stitch borders which assist the cowl in sitting flat (ie, not rolling up). It requires one skein (100 grams) of Malabrigo Arroyo. it is a light and comfortable garment to wear. The pattern can be made with any substituted Sport/5ply yarn of similar weight and texture.

You can make it larger by using 2 skeins (200 grams) of Arroyo and wearing it doubled. If using more than one skein be sure to purchase matching dye lots at the outset as dye lots can vary greatly.

I have made a feature of the join by using 3 needle bind off however other methods of joining could be used such as Kitchener stitch. :-)

The pattern also includes instructions for making the cowl using Malabrigo Worsted.
