5 for 4 – if you buy any 5 Åsa Tricosa patterns at the same time you get the least expensive one for free.

Mysteriosa Cowl is a cosy, textured cowl knitted top down in one piece with a slight flaring toward the bottom.

And yes, this is how the Mysteriosa Shawl started out – as this cowl.

• It’s not lacy, although there are holes.
• There is no stranded colourwork but contrasting colour accents appear.
• There are no p2tog or p2togtbl.¹.
• Easily upsized for a larger cowl or to work with 4ply/sock yarn. (The pattern includes counts and cast on also for such a larger version but only the original size has been test knitted.)

Mysteriosa Cowl requires less than one skein of DK (or sock yarn). If you want a larger cowl, either follow the suggested larger counts or add one or more repeats to the cast on, and lengthwise, too.
