Changes in gauge, while not crucial for the fit of the project, will result in size differences and affect the amount of yarn needed to complete the project.

Techniques Used
• 2 colour cast on
• Circular knitting
• Double Face Knitting
(you knit two right sides at the same time, with two colours. At the end of this pattern you find a mini tutorial.
Important to know: the chart shows only the front side stitches (MC) and the backside stitches (CC) are worked simultaneously)

Of course you can work this cowl also in stranded colour work instead of double knitting.
