SKILL LEVEL:

Adventurous beginner: Skills/concepts include working in the round, two-color ribbing and two basic decrease stitches.

Notes From the Designer:

Keep it cozy with a thick, sumptuous cowl. Create rich texture with two-color ribbing worked in the round. With a larger circumference at the shoulders and a smaller circumference at the head, this subtle cone shape is reminiscent of the beautifully striated, conical shells of conasprella sea snails.

  • To adjust the cowl, you may add or subtract in multiples of 4.
  • As you decrease, you may find it easier to adjust to a smaller cord length.
  • You can BO using knit sts, Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bind Off, or in pattern, as you prefer.
