The motifs for the InfiniCOWLwere designed to be easily interchangeable—they all play well together. There are five motif choices for the front of the cowl, (A,B,C,D, and E) and these were chosen, individually, by the knitters. Some opted to choose all five, working them sequentially across the front, varying motif colors, or background colors, or both, or neither. Others opted to use two of the motifs and create a symmetrical arrangement, like ABABA, or ABBBA, etc. You can choose one motif, or two, or three, or four, or all five. The options are endless. As always, colors choices within a motif are your call, too. I recommend consistancy for balance, but who am I to say? This is your own, unique creation.
The motifs are given names: Diamonds, Waves, Chevrons, Chains, and Slants. You have the benefit of seeing what each of the designs looks like before choosing. Our MALers chose based on the motif name only. Fun!
You also have the option for cowl length. You can knit a short cowl: neckwarmer size, a medium-length cowl or an extra-long one that can be doubled around the neck before buttoning. Or, you can knit it as a reversible scarf, as cpainter chose to do. And, you have the option to steek. This allows the cowl to be opened and worn as a scarf, or buttoned closed and worn as a cowl, or twisted before buttoning for a moebius cowl that shows ff the patterns on both sides of the piece.
Because it is two-sided, this makes for a doubly warm, super versitile cowl. It also means you can choose from five more back designs in addition to the front designs already provided. The back designs are named Small Vs, Stripes, Zigzags, Checkerboard, and Squares.
You can see how, with this many options for design, plus the enormous options for color choices, the cowl possibilities are infinite.
