Textured knits can appear to be complicated, but as my Path Cowl proves, simplicity really can create the most beautiful textures.

Knitted in the round, the simple knit/purl pattern repeats throughout. But just as with life, small changes at the start of some rounds sees the pattern go in different directions creating this wonderful textural effect.

It’s easy to read your knitting with this pattern making it a fun, relaxing project. But make sure you use a stitch marker at the beginning of the round so you know exactly what to do next!

The pattern calls for one skein of DK yarn (preferably one with good stitch definition) making it an easy knit to take on your adventures and creates a stunning, but practical, hands free accessory to keep you cosy indoors and outdoors.

Happy Knitting!
