This mobius cowl is designed for one skein of A Hundred Ravens Aesir yarn, a springy, sport-weight superwash merino. The tone on tone colors work best to show off the lace, but have fun with it!. The lace pattern is mostly reversible until the edging, and it is an enjoyable pattern to knit.
You can, of course, work it in a larger yarn on bigger needles and get a bigger cowl, but it will require more yarn.
The pattern is given in chart form only.
Techniques: Mobius cast-on ( link provided to Cat Bordhi’s miraculous cast on on You Tube), chart reading, lace knitting skills (k2tog, SSK, etc), stretchy bind off, blocking.
