This beginner friendly cowl is knitted in a chunky weight yarn like West Wool Cargo. Choose four color and stripe them throughout the easy breezy garter stitch fabric. This rectangular shape is knitted flat and then seamed together for an infinity scarf style. Go bold with contrasting color pops or create a smooth gradient in one color family in shades from light to dark. I-cord edges frame the chevron fabric for a simple and modern style.
