Deep Grooves Cowl

Advancing Beginner Skills.
Knit, Purl and Slip.
Worked Flat and Joined with a 3 Needle BO or Graft.
Optional Decorative I-cord.

Written Pattern using Standard US Abbreviations (Glossary Provided) a Chart is also included.

Tidy Slipped Stitch Selvage Edges.
Fully Reversible.
Fast and Fun with Impressive End Results.

A “trick” with overlapping placement of simple knit and purl checks makes a Deeply Dimensional Texture.

Especially fun with high variegate yarns, but any color type is lovely.

Adjustable to maximize yarn on hand =knit to desired length or almost out of yarn.

The tighter the stitches the deeper the grooves! Tested beautifully with a lighter yarn and more open gauge as well, so any Yarn Needle pairing is fair game!

Blocking is not required - but you can. Treat your gauge Swatch as you will your FO.
