This eye catching cowl, mobius, or scarf (your choice) uses a mix of a speckle or gradient yarn mixed with a tonal or solid to play off the exotic selection. Make 8” - 11” wide by changing the number of cast on stitches. You will have plenty of yarn, so knit until the length you want….super long to wrap 2-3 times? a shorter cowl as shown? With the provisional cast on (optional) you can make in to a mobius, or an infinity cowl.

Gauge is not critical. More important to knit to a density of stitches that you like for a neck piece. Not too tight, but relaxed enough to drape beautifully. Do a small gauge to test, or simply jump in to the project using experience.

Pick a wild color to play…a chance to indulge your wild streak. Pattern is an easy 6 row repeat so you will have memorized by the second inch! Written as well as charted.

Wear to the Yacht Club for lunch……the pier for a lobster roll….or just a stroll on a chilly beach.

Have fun!
