Use a couple of different shawl-knitting techniques and shapes to knit this triangle cowl in worsted-weight yarn!

This simple triangle has a great texture—I am pretty smitten with these almost waffle-stitch motifs—and the garter border adds stability. You’ll need one standard skein (~200yds) of worsted weight yarn and 6 buttons for finishing.
