This cowl is begun with a provisional cast-on. The end result is a mirror image of the simple decorative lace stitch pattern on both sides of a garter stitch center panel.

2 skeins Swans Island Pure Blends, 85% Organic Merino Wool / 15% Alpaca, worsted weight (100 gms, 250 yds each.)

This lovely loop has a provisional cast on and an easy to memorize lace pattern – features that challenge beginners and keep things interesting for more advanced knitters. With a simple central panel of garter stitch bordered by scalloped lace edges, this design combines femininity with the graphic simplicity of garter ridges. The Anna Cowl adds a touch of whimsy to your wardrobe. Wear it while collecting shells on a blustery day, or use it to keep warm in a chilly office. You may wear it as one long loop or double it up to stay even cozier.
