Are you ready for Spring?! Then grab this sweet treat of a cowl pattern and start knitting up some cute chicks and bunnies.

Sized for the entire family, get started on this seamless, in-the-round, stranded colorwork cowl today.

Note that this pattern does have some longer floats, so this pattern is not recommended as a first colorwork pattern. (But if you really want to knit it you can always duplicate stitch the design on afterwards).

The amounts needed per color are as follows:
Worsted weight yarn.
Approx. 50(60, 80)yds / 46(55, 73)m of main color.
Approx. 35(40, 45)yds / 32(37, 41)m of ribbing color.
Approx 20(25, 55)yds / 18(23, 50)m for chicks.
Approx 35(40, 45)yds / 32(37, 41)m for bunnies.
A small amount of dark yarn for the eyes and nose.

Pictured in Malabrigo Worsted colors Natural, Apple Green, Pollen, Shocking Pink and Cocoa.

For a little more contrast between the chicks and background try making the MC background Apple Green and the ribbing and accents either Natural or one of chick and bunny colors. Alternatively, you might want to try Simple Taupe as main color, or make the chicks a brighter color like Malabrigo Worsted Sauterne. See the Spring Treats Headbands for photos of some of these options.*

While the sample is knit with four different colors (plus a fifth for optional eyes), you can use two or any number of colors. This is great for using up leftovers.

Please enjoy this sweet treat!
