To make the cowl you will require:
158m / 173y / 2 balls of MC and 76m / 83y / 1 ball of CC

OR your choice of DK weight yarn to meet gauge. If you’re using alternative yarn, please use meterage/yardage and not the numbers of balls to make sure you have enough as meterage is not consistent between yarns. Meterage is approximate and you may need slightly more or less depending on your knitting style and any adaptations.

Pattern Notes:
Should you wish for a looser or tighter cowl, the pattern works with an increase or decrease of 1 pattern repeat (6 sts) per 2.5cm/1 inch.

Finishing off
Although blocking is not required, I would soak your finished items in warm water and wool wash and then leave flat to dry. This will relax your stitches and give a neater finish.

All measurements are approximate.
