A long cable needle
Two stitch markers
A tapestry needle

This cowl is knit flat on a pair of circular needles. If you prefer to knit with straight needles I recommend US 11 14 inch.

The cowl has a 6x6 cable through its middle with a 24 stitch garter ribbing on either side. The cable stitch comes on every 10th row, and there are 6 cable crosses through the whole cowl. Mattress stitch is used to seam the cowl, so be sure to leave a tail after the cast on.

If you’re a beginner and unsure of knitting a cable pattern, this pattern will help you learn. It’s very easy and explained in plain english.
