For the motorcycle or bicycle enthusiast or anyone else who suffers from a chilly neck left bare between the top of your coat and the bottom of your helmet or hat, this is the cure! A version of the MC Cowl, this Lite version uses a light worsted yarn and due to the cabled ribbing is very stretchy. At 16” in diameter by 7” in height, wrinkles, bunching up, and extra wraps are not necessary for cuddly warmth! Without being snug, this cowl lays flat close to your neck, tucking under the top of a jacket.

The Cowl is knit in the round using a #3/ light worsted yarn on size 6 US needles.The pattern is easily memorized and necessitates a cable needle for only 3 rows in the entire project! Choose a yarn that is soft and smooth to avoid scratching sensitive skin.
