This pattern is for a cowl, knitted in two contrasting colours with twists and cables.

This, I have no doubt, can be made with any aran weight yarn. I just had 2 balls of Alpaca Cotton in stash at the time inspiration struck. I used pretty much all of it to make the large size cowl.

Notes on the sizes
Small cowl - doubled to fit snug to neck
Large cowl (shown) - doubled but looser around neck, possibility that it can go round three times…I’m not responsible for injury caused if you try this unsuccessfully

Errors
I have been through the pattern with a fine tooth comb for errors; if you have problems with it, please let me know. I can help get you round the issue and if needed, I’ll correct the pattern so others don’t suffer the same fate.

I’m new to design. Please be nice.
