Here’s a cowl pattern with an I-cord tie closure and a nice rippled pattern. In order to knit it, you will need one set of straight needles in size 7, as well as two double-pointed needles, also in size 7 (for the I-cords). It is knit by completing the center piece and then picking up stitches along the sides. Also, the yarn that I used has a varied thick-to-thin worsted weight, although that’s certainly not necessary. Oh, and I only used one skein.
