When you want something cozy and stylish but don’t want to spend too much time on it. There has to be a shorter way …

This is a simple cowl I designed to use every inch of a single skein of Cloudgate. As written, it produces a cowl 4.5” wide with a 44” circumference. It could easily be adapted to be wider using more bulky weight yarn or adapted to other gauges. The i-cord is optional but allows for the cowl to lie flatter when worn as a single loop.

Update March 7 - I realized that I’d forgotten to add in “Place marker and join to work in the round” after the cast-on. Version 2 has this information added.

Update March 14 - The rows are now properly numbered in Version 3. Thank you woolubmine for pointing out the error!
