This easy-to-knit cowl is worked in the round on a circular needle—no seaming or grafting required. It features a pretty textured stitch pattern framed on each end with crisp twisted ribbing. The pattern provides instructions for three circumferences ranging from 24 to 48 inches. Stitch patterns are given in written form (no charts).

Sweetdrop is the fifth and final pattern in my All You Need Is One collection of patterns requiring just one skein of yarn.
