Roo-Loop
Roo-Loop is a cowl or long double-loop with an integrated supercosy hidden pocket in the front to keep your hands warm.
Or use it for your iPod, sunglasses, keys, etc. – what will you put in your pocket?
The cowl is constructed as a tube with a small tube inside, all knit in the round, seamlessly in one piece. The pocket part is explained with a photo-tutorial.
It’s fun to make and fun to wear ☺
The pattern contains instructions for three sizes: short, medium or long double-loop.
You can see an overview of the sizes in this post.

size M: 150cm/59“ long,
size L (size of sample): 180cm/71“ long
all sizes: 19cm/7.5“ tall (1/2 of tube circumference)
The cowl can easily be made longer or shorter but keep in mind that this will affect yardage requirements.
