About the Pattern

Knit this cute reversible cowl featuring an adorable cat at play!

I know it goes without saying that keeping cats away from yarn is a project in itself. With the Cattitude Cowl, I wanted to show the playfulness of a cat going after a ball of yarn, with the yarn ball unwinding as the cat plays. This cute cat cowl will help keep you adorably warm!

Double knit in the round from the bottom up, the cowl is fully reversible, featuring opposite color schemes on either side. Use two solid colors for a classic look or a solid paired with a variegated yarn for a more interesting color combination (gradual or subtle color changes work best).

The finished size of the cowl is approximately 8 inches (20.3 cm) tall and 24 inches (61 cm) around. The color work design is chart only, not written instructions.

Double Knitting Tutorial

I have a double knitting tutorial that covers casting on, binding off, edging, and reading basic charts. It’s great for beginners, and experienced double knitters might also pick up something new.
