I had some leftover yarn from a sweater and decided to make something to keep my neck cozy on frosty winter mornings. I get annoyed by cowls that slump down and leave your neck exposed, so I wanted something big and chunky and WARM: a double wrap, double thick, bulky-weight cowl should do the trick!

Knit throughout with the easy Irish Moss stitch, this cowl pattern can be used with a variety of yarn and color options and is very beginner friendly. Customization is easy on this one! Gauge is not essential, but will affect the total amount of yarn needed.
