Stantorre Cowl
This pattern is provided free for your enjoyment! I design my free patterns to enjoy the process of knitting and to give something back to the knitting community.

Contributions will go towards purchasing yarn for future designs and the occasional Earl Grey latte to keep the fires of creativity fueled! Regardless of whether you contribute financially or not, thank you for your support and kind words on my patterns.
This simple knit and purl pattern works well with self-striping coloured yarn. This pattern is very stretchy, but retracts right back to the knitted size, making it cozy and warm. Stantorre is Old English for brick tower, which is what this cowl resembles. Create your own tower of warmth for your neck.
