Narrow Minded
Pattern Info
This extra-long cowl is meant to be worn doubled around your neck, or worn about your shoulders.
Throw it over your head. There are no rules in fashion! Added bonus: this puppy is totally reversible, and super easy :)
Of Note
This cowl uses helical knitting, which eliminates the jog between stripes that one gets with traditional knitting.
Gauge is not crucial, but this cowl was designed to use up almost all of two skeins of Twice As Nice. Cast on fewer stitches, or knit fewer rows if you are concerned about running out.
Here is a link to a video tutorial of helical knitting:
