Long Raindrops Knit Cowl Scarf is an easy reversible knit and purl design that is great for beginners. It’s an easy-to-memorize eight-row repeat pattern that is knitted in-the-round on circular needles.

You may also customize this design with different yarn colors or create a longer infinity scarf.

Reversible: This is a reversible pattern, so the texture is visible and looks great on both the right and wrong sides of your work when knitting in one color.
