I knitted mine with a Yarnz2go knit kit, if you want to grab a kit, find it HERE

In living color cowlcho. A simply fabulous cowl/poncho~

With the Picot stitch cast on, create the bottom border first in a textured boucle, then join in the round and knit various sized ribbing patterns to decrease your cowl toward the top edge/ neckline in a self striping yarn. This project grows really fast in an aran weight yarn.
The pattern is fully written. The unblocked dimensions are 49“ in bottom circumference, 16“ in height and 22“ around the neckline, when knitted to gauge.

C1 - A thick and thin Boucle yarn in an aran weight for the Picot cast on and also the finish. 20 yards.
