This seamless, cosy, twined cowl starts off with a provisional cast on and ends with some grafting. The organic staghorn cables make this the perfect project for learning to cable without a cable needle.

I used roughly 1.5 balls of Cocoon to make the sample shown; you could make a single loop version with just one ball.

Yarn: Rowan Cocoon 80% merino, 20% mohair; 126yd/115m per
100g
: 2 balls (shown in 833 Duck Down)
Needles: 6.5mm/US10.5 needles
Notions: wool needle for grafting; cable needle (if desired)
Gauge: 24 sts x 18 rows per 10cm/4in in pattern (after
blocking)
Dimensions: 14 cm(5.5in) x 100cm(40in)

Rowan Cocoon changes tension significantly after blocking so please do block your swatch to make sure you’re happy with the look and feel for your cowl.
