Fractures Cowl
What it is: A reversible cowl made from a clever technique which continuously knits each stich into two further stitches – done in a way that makes the fabric appear to be constant knit two togethers. Knit with two strands of yarn at a time the finished fabric is not only thick and squishy and great for keeping you warm through the winter, but it also looks interesting and is fun to knit. This cowl is knitted using larger needles than its hat counterpart to create a luxurious fabric that drapes beautifully. It is also lined with stockinette stitch to provide contrast and make the cowl reversible.
