Color Block Cowl

To celebrate the release of my complete Color Block Collection you can receive the Color Block Headband pattern free when you purchase either one or both of my Color Block Shawl and/or Color Block Cowl patterns. Just put both or all three patterns into your cart and the headband will automatically be free at checkout.

This is the second piece in my Color Block Collection. I created this cowl with Hello Stella Basic Stella Fingering weight yarn. I was inspired by the artistic talents of my son. He uses bright and bold shapes and colors in his art and I thought that fit perfectly into this collection. This cowl, like the shawl, is knit piece by piece flat, which makes it easy to work on wherever you are. The separate pieces are seamed together. The cowl is joined together in the back and then a border is added to the bottom.

This is a cowl that anyone from a beginner to an advanced knitter can enjoy. The best part is choosing the
colors. I have included a coloring page to help you plan your beauty. This is also a great stash buster. This cowl would also look amazing with speckled yarns. Go crazy!
