This is a perfect quick knit cowl!
It is knit in chunky yarn on the bias, starting with a provisional cast-on. Then the beginning and ending stitches are grafted together to form the seamless cowl.

You cast on one time at the beginning, using a provisional cast-on. When you change colors, in the section where you change colors every 2 rows, carry the other color along the side. I cut the yarn for the longer sections, but you could carry the yarn along the side if you wanted to.
