Ultra simple, cozy cowl that is sized to wrap as a head cover too. May be worn several ways. Great look for men and women alike! This pattern can easily be adjusted to use most any gauge yarn; just be sure to calculate number of stitches to cast on, so that you get the circumference you’re looking for. Also, the pattern is written in a multiple of 5 stitches for the basket weave knit/purl switcheroo. You can vary the basket weave length/depth any way you want, again, adjusting the number of stitches to ensure that you’ll end up with the correct circumference.
