Yoli Cowl is available for sale as an individual pattern, or as part of the Yoli Accessories ebook. The Accessories also include both Yoli Hat and Yoli Loop, bundled for a special 20% savings.

A comfy infinity scarf with fun construction, the Yoli Cowl has garter stitch edges framing lace mesh worked with short rows. The edges grow wider and narrower, while the short rows add ease and dimension, allowing the cowl to scrunch and tuck cozily around your neck and head. Worked sideways from a provisional cast on and grafted, this extra long reversible cowl can be worn right off the needles, either as a long scarf or double-wrapped around your neck or head to keep out the chill.

Construction: The Yoli Cowl is knit sideways beginning with a provisional CO which is grafted to the final row. Stitch gauge determines the height of the cowl, while row gauge determines its length; to adjust the length, work fewer or more repeats of the mesh.

Techniques & Skills Used: provisional CO, knit, short rows, easy lace, grafting; links are included to my short rows and grafting tutorials.

Size: 46” circumference and 12” height.

Yarn: Malabrigo Yarn Merino Worsted (100% merino wool, 210 yards/ 192m/100g), shown in Zinc; 3 skeins, or 525 yards of worsted wool yarn.

Other Materials: US 9 (5.5mm) needle, or size to match gauge; Stitch markers (2); Scrap yarn for provisional CO; Yarn needle.

Gauge: 16 st and 26 rows/4” in garter stitch. Gauge is not critical for this project, however a different gauge may result in a smaller or larger finished cowl, and different yardage requirements.

Thank you to my lovely test knitters, and my wonderful tech editor Kate Vanover.
