PATTERN NOTES
This cowl is worked from short side to short side, adding length in between. Stitches are decreased at the two ends by skipping stitches, then the two sloped ends are joined together to create the loop of the cowl.

When using another colour that is not to be cut, carry it up along the side.

Please note that all ch 3 at the beginning of a row are counted as one dc; all ch 1 at the beginning of a row are NOT counted as a stitch.

Pattern is written using US crochet terminology.
