The original Bloom Cowl was designed using 2
colors of yarn that reminded me of the coming
spring – a fresh green and a lovely floral color –
in a super easy striped sequence. It was knit
super long so you could wear in just draped
over your neck on a warm spring day, or wrap it
twice around your neck, if the day cooled off
and you needed a bit more warmth.

This design is now expanded to provide
instructions for a single color version as well as
a smaller version that is half the size.

So play with all the options, small and snug or
large and drapey. One solid color or two fun
stripes! Add or subtract stitches in multiples of
4 to make any size cowl you want.
