This is my favorite way to knit a cowl! It wears like an asymmetrical triangle shawl, but without the fuss! So easy to throw on to complete any outfit. I love texture in my knitting and I think bobbles are the queen of texture! Mixed with stunning La Bien Aimée Merino DK yarn, this pattern is just a joy to knit and wear! The cowl is knit on the bias from the back neck corner. Clever increasing and decreasing give its unique shape and allow the stripes to fall on the diagonal and a simple seam closes up the back neck.
*In purchasing this product you will receive a .pdf pattern for the pictured item so that you can knit them up yourself, not the actual finished item.
