If you’re anything like me, you have several single skeins of yarn in your stash and no idea what to do with them. The Nanny Bird Cowl is a quick and satisfying way to put those skeins to work. Knit in the round, it features a seed stitch boarder and a lovely slipped stitch pattern for the main body. Once blocked, the slipped stitch pattern really opens up to show off your beautiful skein.

Yarn

Gauge

This cowl was inspired by my wonderful grandmother.
