Notes
The cowl starts with a provisional cast on and then has the ends grafted together. If you’re uncomfortable grafting in pattern, you can work a 3 needle bind off or cast on with your preferred method and seam it. With these alternative methods though, it won’t be completely reversible. Suggested yardage includes 10% excess as your gauge may vary
