Pattern Notes
Do you have lots of fingering weight scraps leftover and can’t bear to throw them out? Small bits that just aren’t enough for a full project? This is the perfect project to use up all those odds and ends. And the best part? This cowl has very few ends to weave in! Most ends can be knitted in as you go. A photo tutorial is provided for the knitting in of ends - this is a separate PDF file included with your purchase. Just to reiterate – you do not need to weave in most of the ends!

Color Notes
I couldn’t stop with just one, so I made three samples - greens, rainbow, and pink/purple. • If you want every stripe/section to be a different color, you will need 33 colors. If you don’t have that many colors to choose from, you might consider using a single color for every other stripe, as seen in the green version of this cowl.

Construction Notes
The work begins at the top edge, in the center. It’s worked like a triangular shawl in the beginning. After the neck circumference has been reached, you will join to work in the round. From there, increases will only occur in the center section.

An I-cord bind-off is added to the neck opening and the lower edge.
