Probably the most wearable of any of the knitting projects, the cowl is also the easiest pattern in the eBook to knit. Throw it on over a shirt, a jacket or even your pajamas and out the door your go, even if you’re just making a quick trip to the drive thru. It’ll keep you warm, and stylish while giving you a little hug around your neck. Knit completely in the round, these stitches stack upon one another to form words that make it easy to knit.
