WOWL! by Jeanette Sloan

WOWL!

Snuggly meets statement in this reversible two-color brioche cowl with tons of squish and volume. Pull it up to your ears or wear it with a bit more slouch. Whether you wear it or gift it, the cowl is sure to get a “WOW!”

IK Approach
This is a pattern from the book, “Knitstrips – The World’s First Comic Strip Knitting Book.” It uses an approach we call “Interactive Knitting” or “IK”. IK patterns are yarn neutral. They contain all the information and details to create the design, while allowing the knitter creative freedom as to yarn selection, gauge, measurements, and proportions.

The knitter starts with the yarn of their choice and determines their preferred gauge (which is specific for each yarn/knitting needle pairing). Using the gauge and individual body measurements, the pattern then guides construction, techniques, and finishing of the piece. While the pattern does not specify an amount of yarn, a yardage calculator (available online or via phone apps) will get you in the ballpark.

IK patterns celebrate your point of view, and we can’t wait to see your one-of-a-kind projects!
