Balsam Point Cowl features a geometric design that’s reminiscent of a colorwork pattern. You’ll create the angled stitches with 1x1 twists that don’t need a cable needle! Knit your cowl in a neckwarmer size or create a long loop to wrap around - it’s easy to create a custom size if you’d like something in-between! Choose a solid or semi solid yarn to show off the twisted stitches.

This pattern assumes knowledge of working in the round. Both charts and written directions are provided for all stitch patterns. A video tutorial link is included for the 1x1 twists without a cable needle used to create the geometric pattern.
