The Cascades Cowl is an easy cowl pattern made for beginners. If you know how to cast on, knit and purl you can make this scarf. I have a link in the pattern to my full video tutorial (available for free on my youtube channel) that teaches you the steps for the stitch pattern, how to bind off, how to join in the round and how to weave in your ends. This cowl is so easy to make and I find the stitch pattern to be really fun to work with.
