Introduction
The Snowy Tracks Cowl is a bulky weight knit with stockinette stitch punctuated with dots of seed stitch. It is knit from the bottom up with knits and purls. Using the long-tail cast-on method, stockinette stitch, seed stitch and basic bind-off, this simple pattern has a classic look and feel. The drawstrings in the front keep the design from being boring and add an element of variation for style.

This is a simple 2-stitch, 4-row repeat pattern, and the size is easily customizable depending on what the knitter would like. The pattern comes in one size, however, instructions for how to customize your knitting are included so that it can be exactly what you want it to be.
