How often have you gravitated towards an irresistible skein of variegated or hand-dyed skein of yarn and then didn’t know what to do with it. Well, answer solved! This cowl is worked up quickly in sport weight yarn, with a garter stitch base. If you liked the Cross Me Knot shawl, you are going to love the Cross Me Knot Cowl.

This sport weight cowl has plenty of drape. Worked top-down with a short seam to close it up. Garter stitches really help your variegated yarn shine, but would also look lovely in a tonal yarn.
