This cowl combines two of my favorite design elements, 2 colors worked with slipped stitches rather than stranding and the wonderful 128 Superwash with its perfect weight and rich colors. Because the cowl is worked in the round color can be changed every single row to make lovely thin stripes. This pattern is a free pattern!
