I have one side that I like to show certain people - my boss, my inlaws, my bank manager, and the policeman I drive past each morning.
Then I have my other side, which I save for my children, my partner, and my crazy friends (you know who you are….).
This cowl is for those two sides; wear the ‘respectable’ plain side for the first group of people, but then when it’s time to get your uniqueness out, simply flip it over and let your real personality shine on through!

This Side is written for 3 yarn weights (Fingering, DK, and Worsted), and comes in 2 sizes (child and adult)

CONSTRUCTION
This side is a double thickness, close fitting cowl.
The pattern has you start with a Provisional Cast on, and work in the round using the main colour.
You then will work using the main and contrast colours, working in stripes, and slipping stitches as instructed in the pattern. At the conclusion of the knit, you will 3 needle bind off the two raw edges of knitting.
SKILLS REQUIRED
You will need to know how to:
Knit in the round
Provisional cast on
3-needle bind off

The This Side pattern was designed in September 2013 for Jodulbug Creations.
