Enjoy this pretty cowl pattern! I knitted mine as shown and also the matching hat shown with a Knit Kit by Yarnz2go, my very own online yarn shop. Either way you go, I wish you happy knitting!

The Cottonwood cowl is the mate to the Cottonwood hat.
It is knitted in the round with a two color stranded knitting method. The body slightly increases between the ribbed borders.

The pattern is fully written, offers a chart and a how to catch the floats in the back video link. The blocked cowl measures 27.5“ in circumference and 10.75“ in height.
