The Little Gemstones Cowl is worked in the round in one piece with no sewing or picking up stitches, the yarn is broken after each gem is worked so you could use a different colour for every gem.

Choose this cowl pattern if you want to use many colours, if you want to knit rows of one colour choose the Geodes Cowl instead.

The size of the cowl can be increased / decreased in both circumference and height, the pattern includes directions on how to do this.

This is a written pattern with no charts.
