This is an easy to learn, simple pattern and is quick to make.

A reversible cowl made in a choice of two ways: to button on two needles, or in the round on circulars.
It is in a garter stitch chevron pattern and has matching reversible cast on and cast off methods included in the pattern, along with photo tutorials.

The pattern is written for the two samples as shown, but instructions are given to alter the size to make it big and loose if you prefer.

You can also use different yarn – any of similar weight to Noro Silk Garden: approx 180 - 200 m per 100 gms. Long colour change shows the pattern best, but a plain colour would still be fine.
