Garter stitch is knit in 3 directions in this fun cowl - all without cutting your yarn! Designed for Noro Akari with its long color runs and great yardage, the simple garter stitch shows off variegated yarns beautifully while the changes in direction keep things interesting. This pattern can be adapted for different weights of yarn.
