This super simple pattern is great for beginners and looks much more difficult than it is. Only skills required are casting on, knit stitch and binding off. Cowl is done in round. Step by step pictures included with instructions on how to tie knot in front.

Note: Although Ravelry website lists “Shirley” yarn by Kraemer Yarns as “bulky”, it really is more like worsted weight. Kraemer website sells 3.5 oz skein of 145 yards. Ravelry website automatically listed Shirley yarn at 170 yards per 100 gm, which I do not believe to be correct.
