This simple infinity cowl works up quickly using around 300 yards of Sport, DK, Worsted, or Aran weight yarn. Each 3-row repeat creates a ridge or little “breezeway” that work up to make a fully reversible pattern. The Easy Breezeway Cowl is a great choice whether you’re a beginner looking to practice your knits and purls, or an advanced knitter seeking an easy tune-out-and-relax project.

Techniques: Long-tail CO, stretchy BO, K, P, Garter stitch (K first rnd, P second Rnd; repeat).

Supplies:

Yarn – At least 300 yards / 150 grams of Sport, DK, Worsted, or Aran weight yarn. I used a DK/Light Worsted yarn in colorway “En Plein Air” by Into The Warren. Yardage/grams needed varies depending on yarn weight and desired scarf length and width.

Needles – US 7 (4.5 mm) circular needles, 40 in. or size needed based on yarn weight and desired scarf length.

Stitch marker to mark beginning of round (BOR).

Tapestry/yarn needle for weaving in ends.

Notes: Wet block for best results. Scarf length is highly customizable; simply cast on (CO) additional stitches until you reach desired total length.
