We just love to see Houndstooth - a timeless and classic pattern stitch - show up in patterns. We fall in love with it again and again! The Houndstooth Cowl features a dramatic red and black color palette, knit in washable Swish Worsted yarn.

This cowl features the classic houndstooth stitch. It is worked in
the round (knitting all sts) except for a garter turning ridge of CC
on each end. This turning ridge gives a peek of color on the edge
that finishes this design perfectly. The Cowl is folded to the WS
on this turning ridge and hemmed in place
