Let It Flow cowl is the perfect addition to your in-between-seasons accessory wardrobe.

The cowl is worked flat, sideways and on the bias in two alternating colours. Then the ends of the knitted piece are joined together to form a loop.

This design incorporates a special selvage stitch technique in place of traditional way of carrying the non-working yarn strand to the next section to make the decorative and neat looking edge.

Yardage required (approx):
MC: 284.0 yards (259.7 meters);
CC: 142 yards (130 meters)

Yarn used in this sample:
elann.com Limited Edition Micro Cotton, DK / 8 ply (11 wpi)
MC: 08, Silver, 2 skeins;
CC: 06, Blue Topaz, 1 skein.
Since this yarn is discontinued, it can be substituted with any DK or sport weight yarn.

Let your creativity flow by working each lace section in a different stitch pattern that fits into a pattern’s stitch count, as in the sample by Felix79654.

In April’s 2019 update I included three additional stitch patterns to alternate in each consecutive repeat. My decision was inspired by knitters projects where they substituted the main stitch pattern used in the original design with their preferred stitch patterns from various sources.
