The Sweet Edith cowl, named for my wonderful mother, combines knit with a very simple crochet border, or a picot bind off may be used if you prefer all knitting.

This cowl is fun to knit and fun to wear. Knitting it in a cotton blend yarn makes it a perfect summer cowl. Because the stitch pattern is easy to memorize, it is a great project for knit night, or any knit gathering with friends. Subtle increases give the cowl a beautiful drape when worn, and the final crochet or knit edge adds a sweet touch.
