Esker Cowl
Gradient yarns shine in this striking cowl. Worked in the round, two balls of the same colorway are alternated to create opposing yet harmonious color shifts. Reverse single crochet creates a subtle ridge texture, with alternating rounds in plain double crochet—the perfect combination to highlight a beautiful yarn.

NOTES
-
Cowl is worked in joined rounds. Do not turn unless otherwise stated.
-
Alternate balls of yarn for each round following Round 1. For maximum effect, start each ball at a different point in the yarn’s color gradient if at all possible.
-
To change yarn balls, work to last yarnover with current ball, yarn over with new yarn ball and complete stitch. Carry unused yarn up wrong side (WS) of fabric.
