As in the Because I Love You Wrap, this cowl was inspired by my late sister Wendy who was always doing special things for people she loved. Why? Just BECAUSE! For those who enjoyed the wrap, here is a little cowl that has the same characteristics as the wrap. There are no picots but there is an option for the sections that give this cowl some beautiful visual interest. Like the wrap, choosing highly contrasting yarns will result in a beautiful “bridge”. The final measurements blocked are 18 inches long, 23 inches in circumference. As in all patterns it is recommended you do a swatch. If final measurements need to be changed a bit for your liking, increasing the needle size will increase the circumference and drape of the final fabric. I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I enjoyed writing it!
