CONSTRUCTION
This cowl is knitted in the round. A Long Tail Cast On method is used to cast on the stitches. There is a ribbing border at the top and bottom, and a houndstooth pattern in the main middle section. Make sure to carry your unused yarn loosely when stranded knitting so that your cowl does not look puckered.
