The style of this cowl was inspired by a GAP cowl worn by a friend and the stitch pattern by a basket full of yarn in my parents’ house.

The chart is fun to follow and makes for a speedy knit as you turn out this tube on large needles with a soft and bulky yarn. The near garter stitch adds to the volume of this cowl as it shrinks the true length.

It’s long enough to wear as a perfectly scrunched neck-warmer or a snood, in case you forget your hat.

A special thanks to Nalye for the French translation!
