PATTERN NOTES
• Cowl is worked in the round, from the bottom up. • Any time you are changing colors between rounds, if you are carrying them up, be sure to pick the new
color up from behind the old color, crossing the two
colors over one another to prevent any holes.
• It is not necessary to cut yarns during pattern, simply
loosely carry the non-working color up behind the
work.
• Note that you do not actually knit with the CC within
the cowl body pattern. The yarn is simply woven back and forth through use of slipped stitches.
