This ultra-textured cowl is knit bottom up and is adjustable in length. This pattern is based on my popular I Shawl Build my Fortress and features wrapped stitches and lace that mimics cables. This quick knit is a bold and graphic addition to any winter wardrobe and is a fantastic way to use up those single skeins of fingering weight I KNOW you have lying around. This pattern can also be hacked, and I’ll add a few tips at the end of the pattern.
