This is a soft and versatile moebius cowl with a completely reversible stitch pattern. It can be worn long and loose, doubled around the neck, or pulled up over the head to warm your ears. It will knit up quickly, as it uses thick and thin yarn and size 11 (you might need to use 13; check your gauge to be sure). I used all but about 6 inches of both skeins of the yarn for my cowl, which measures 46 inches around and 9 1/2 inches wide, so if you want to make it bigger, plan accordingly. Although I used my daughter as a model for the pictures, it’s really an adult sized pattern.
