Notes

Missy likes reds & bling, so I held the shiny metallic 2nd color along with the MC. This feels nice & soft. This cowl looks so much richer & better in person - photos do not capture the real beauty.

Knit both the blue & this red one togther 2-at-a-time magic loop, just like socks, on 47 in circular needle.

Here are my pattern instructions:

Stitch pattern: Y/O, SSK repeat continiously

  • Cast on 124 sts using Jeny’s surprisingly stretchy cast-on & join to knit in round
  • Knit 1 round in MC
  • Add 2nd color and knit the following 38 rounds in the stich pattern of y/o, ssk, then cut 2nd color
  • Knit 1 round with MC
  • Bind off using Jeny’s surptisingly stretchy bind-off NOTE: If using magic loop to knit in round, make sure to have your Y/O in place as you switch your needle for the next half of your round.

If you want a larger infinity cowl, just increase needle size to 10 or 10.5, and/or use thicker yarn. You can also stay with this neelde size & increase the cast-on amount of sts.
