Here’s a full spring cowl that can be made less voluminous, if desired. To knit it, you’ll need a 24” circular needle in size 7, three stitch markers, and up to about 220 yards of worsted-weight yarn, depending on how long you want it to be (however, this pattern is a good candidate for knitting-until-you-run-out, so yardage is less of an issue). I also recommend a nice alpaca, for cuddliness!
