Happy Traveler Cowl
This cowl is worked flat throughout the knitting, blocked, and then seamed. The pattern includes a schematic for blocking and written instructions for seaming along with a diagram.
It looks lacy, but uses lots and lots of mini-ICords and cables to achieve this effect. A M2 increase creates shaping at the beginning of the RS rows.
It was designed to highlight the shifting colors of a gradient yarn cake, and is worked on a circular US 4/(3.5mm) needle, though any fingering weight yarn will do. It is part of the Yarnover Truck Happiness is…Yarn Club for July.
A Note about Gauge - To work a gauge swatch, cast on and work pattern for 4”. Check gauge with gentle stretching of swatch. As long as you are close to gauge, you can continue working in pattern.

“Reversible Knitting” by Lynn Barr is an excellent resource for creating reversible knit fabric, and was the inspiration for this pattern.
