Where I live, when it’s cold enough for a hat, it is usually cold enough for something serious to keep your neck warm too. A cowl is my favorite way to keep the warmth in that gap between your coat and hat. I like my cowls to sort of stand up on their own and not need to be held up or messed with. Super bonus if they are wide enough to not leave any room for cold air to get in around the back of your coat too. This shape of cowl is my go-to. This cowl pattern coordinates with my Sugar Twist Hat pattern.

The Sugar Twist Cowl is a striped cowl knit in the round with no jogs in the stripes.

To make the instructions simpler to digest this pattern is written
for one size, adult with suggestions to easily adapt
the pattern.

You can use these instructions to make this cowl with
two OR three colors. Shown in Lion Brand Wool Ease
Thick and Quick.

I hope you find it as useful as I do.
