This cowl is uses vertical cabling to create undulating rows of stitches. It begins as a scarf (using a crochet cast-on), and is worked flat with a slipped stitch edge. Once the proper circumference is reached, it is attached on one side as you knit. The reversible wavy texture is seen when the upper corner is folded down. While a cable needle is used, it is for picking up stitches, not for cables.

errata: The pattern lists the gauge as “4.5 sts/4in.” It should read “18-20 sts/24 rows = 4 in/ 10cm.”
