Whitethorn combines the style of a triangular shawl with the ease of a pull-on cowl. With no fussy ends to manage, this is the perfect “throw on and go” accessory and is great for gift knitting as well! It uses a single skein of DK weight yarn and the simple patterning means it will look just as good in solid, tonal or speckled yarns. Beginning at the center front with a garter tab cast on, and working down and out. This cowl is first knit flat, then joined in the round, for a quick, fun, seamless knit.
