Although I love the mathematical beauty of the mobius cast-on, many find it too fiddly and mind-bending and miss out of the loveliness of knitting a mobius cowl. This cowl begins as a narrow strip that is twisted and joined for work in the round. Stitches picked up along the edge provide a sturdier start for mobius knitting. The cowl is finished with small picots for stretch and visual interest. The finished cowl can be worn with the twist in front or in back for varying levels of warmth.
