You actually get two patterns and just how cool is that? Even better, they are both forever free downloads! I’d love it if you added the pattern(s) to your faves. If you like the colors/yarns, the colorful cowl knit kits are available right HERE

The Extend cowl and beanie. Two colorful and fun to knit projects. Choose just one project or knit them both, either for yourself or gift them. Everyone can wear them.

A single skein of our Mushy makes either project feel wonderfully soft and the color combinations to choose from are inspiring. Both grow quickly~

The cowl and the beanie are knitted in the round with a 3 X 3 rib stitch pattern that extends to a wider middle body and then decreases again, back to the smaller sized ribbed border, which gives a bit more comfort in the cowl and of course the hat gets further decreased in the crown.

Yarn
Mushy 120 yards in a worsted weight with 2 fab colors, creating a marled look.
