​Boulder is a generously sized cowl inspired by the beautiful pattern named Denver by Veronica Parsons.

Loved the cluster stich pattern but just wanted to space them out. Love cartridge rib for its texture.

Miss Babs Yowza in the color way Biker Chick begged to be a cowl tucked into the collar of my motorcycle jacket. One skein of Yowza will yield one cowl cast on with 180 stitches and another smaller one for a friend cast on at 150 stitches.​ Or you could go wild and cast on 330 stitches and make one long enough to double around your neck.

Circular needles and seamless construction make this project easy to finish. Just weave in the two ends and out the door without even having to block, if you wish!

caution: I am not a tense knitter, my gauge may be a little looser than yours. You may want size 8 needles. Swatch and unravel to use every inch!

Many thanks to my technical advisor Gina Lynette!
